LONDON — With police sharpshooters standing guard on rooftops around London’s Old Bailey, two men went on trial today for a series of Irish Republican Army bombings that killed three people and injured dozens.
Thomas Quigley and Paul Kavanagh, both 29 and from Belfast, face 10 charges--including three counts of murder. They are accused of being part of an IRA unit that carried out the bombings during a monthlong terror campaign in fall of 1981.
