A report expected this Friday March 8 could reveal the identity of a double agent within the IRA, the republican paramilitaries. At the center of the investigation, a name: “Stakeknife” This supposed spy for the British services is said to have infiltrated the Irish Republican Army, right up to the top of the hierarchy.
British espionage would have covered up his actions – torture, kidnappings in addition to assassinations – in order not to compromise him and to continue to glean information about the IRA.
