Gareth O'Connor was a hard working father and son loved by all. He was a member of the RIRA ( Real IRA ) and working as an informer for the British security forces.
Update on this documentary :
On 11 June 2005, O'Connor's body was discovered in his car in Newry Canal, County Down.
His father, Mark, believes that the Provisional IRA were responsible for the murder, as they had threatened father and son.
Mark O'Connor said: "I gave those names [of the killers] to Gerry Kelly [Sinn Féin assembly member]. But nothing has been done. Gerry Adams ignores us and ignores all the families of the Disappeared."
A Sinn Féin spokesperson said:
The IRA have made it clear that they were not involved in the disappearance of Gareth O'Connor. We accept totally this statement. It is our belief that the family should look towards either the republican micro organisation Gareth O'Connor was suspected to be involved with or the Special Branch he was alleged to be working for to further their search for justice. Gerry Adams is deeply committed to this issue and to seeing this injustice ended.
