Twenty-nine people died in the Omagh bombing
|
Fibres found on a Lisburn car bomb were 'indistinguishable' from those found at the home of Omagh bomb suspect Sean Hoey, Belfast Crown Court has heard.
Senior NI forensic scientist Dr Ruth Griffin said she found five fibres on items recovered from Mr Hoey's house at Molly Road in Jonesborough.
She said they matched fibres recovered from a timer power unit from a car bomb defused in Lisburn in May 1998.
Mr Hoey denies 58 charges including the murder of 29 people in Omagh in 1998.
Dr Griffin said it was unusual to find matching fibres in a random search, but she said she had found no fibres linking Hoey to the Omagh bomb or any of the other devices he is accused of building.
The case continues.
