Audio interview with Anne Cadwallader, author and investigator with the Pat Finucance Centre for Human Rights, by Pat Kenny for Newstalk The Pat Kenny Show on 25 September 2013. Seven days earlier a book entitled ‘Lethal Allies: British collusion in Ireland’ was published which alleged that some senior RUC officers ignored suspected RUC and UDR collusion with loyalist paramilitaries in killings which took place in the mid-Ulster and border areas between 1972 and 1976. Cadwallader, the author of the book, discusses the issue of collusion. The Pat Kenny Show is Newstalk’s flagship current affairs programme.
