Former IRA supergrass Raymond Gilmour has made a complaint to Police Ombudsman against a senior PSNI officer after police failed to interview him about IRA activities in Derry.
Gilmour contacted the Ombudsman by phone earlier yesterday to make the complaint against a senior detective in the PSNI’s Terrorist Investigation Unit, Chief Supt Tim Hanley.
The 54-year-old believes the PSNI are now refusing to interview him even though two weeks ago DCS Hanley told his solicitor he would be brought back to Northern Ireland to assist an investigation into IRA activities in the late 1970s and 1980s.
Now Ombudsman investigators plan to travel to Britain to take a statement from Gilmour at his secret hideaway address.
Gilmour lit the blue touch paper last month when he published his new book “What Price Truth?”
He said he decided to publish the book to “lift the lid on atrocities carried out by the IRA’s Derry Brigade.’’
