There you go again - making stuff up...
(we'll come to the 'evidence' bit later on)

As you obviously know by now, there is no 'amnesty'...
(your inability to post a link to this speaks volumes, and you now qualify your blunder as 'effectively an amnesty')

You spouted what you thought it meant, and hate it when pulled up yet again on your own shortcomings!
(it all depends on evidence and the timeline)


OK...

Mr Downey was due to stand trial in 2014 over the Hyde Park attack, but the trial collapsed because he was wrongly told he was not wanted by police.

And

"The 1972 double murder investigation was re-opened by the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) four years ago, shortly after the Hyde Park bomb trial collapsed.
A judgement by Mr Justice Sweeney in the Hyde Park case revealed that police had uncovered evidence linking Mr Downey to the Enniskillen attack.
But in 1985, prosecutors decided not to seek his extradition from the Republic of Ireland, after evidence alleged to have linked him to the bombing went missing.
A fresh file on the killings was submitted to the Public Prosecution Service (PPS) in September 2014, and a decision was taken to charge Mr Downey."

But hey...

linky linky

"The suspect behind the Hyde Park bombing can be extradited to Northern Ireland to face charges over the murder of two soldiers in 1972, a judge has ruled.
John Downey, 67, whose trial for the IRA bombing in London collapsed five years ago, is wanted by prosecutors over the murder of two Ulster Defence Regiment (UDR) soldiers in Enniskillen.
In Dublin High Court on Friday, Ms Justice Aileen Donnelly rejected Downey's objection that "it would be oppressive to surrender him" from the Republic of Ireland."

Is that the 'amnesty' you were talking about that appears not to be recognised by Ireland as well? :LOL:

Oh, and...

"Downey, from Co Donegal, was detained in Ireland in October after a European arrest warrant was issued."

After Brexit he may well not have been subject to a EAW, and quitters would have probably handed him his 'amnesty' on a plate.
(or words to that effect :rolleyes:)

Why do you feel compelled to comment on stuff you don't understand.
I tried to explain to you that the defendant in the Hyde park bomb trial was released because he had received a letter from Blair's government assuring him that he was not wanted for any crime.
The clear implication in the letter was that he could rest assured that he would not be prosecuted for any crimes committed while he was in the IRA.
The Judge had to abort the trial not because of lack of evidence or risk of a miscarriage of justice but simply because the defendant had a letter from the British government telling him he would not face prosecution.
What is it that you don't understand.
