Collusion groups seek EU support

The groups are seeking the support of the European parliament

Campaign groups from NI which claim the British state colluded in the murder of their relatives are seeking the support of the European parliament.

Twenty-five representatives will meet human rights organisations and European politicians over the next two days.

Robert McClenaghan, from the group An Fhirinne (Irish for The Truth) said they wanted to raise the profile of their campaign.

"We will be meeting with MEPs and those who are interested in truth," he said.

"Part of the reason for the visit to Brussels is to secure the promise of an EU fact finding mission to Ireland in order to deepen their understanding of this issue."
