New investigation into Enniskillen Remembrance Day bombing

A new file is to be handed over to police in Northern Ireland and the PSNI launched a new investigation into the Remembrance Day bombing atrocity in Enniskillen 25 years ago, it has been revealed. Eleven people were killed and 63 others were injured when the no warning bomb ripped through the Fermanagh town, on 8 November, 1987. A 12th victim, Ronnie Hill, spent 13 years in a coma and died in 2000. It has been reported that the investigation is following "active line of inquiry" after new material came to light. The Poppy Day bombing, which will be remembered on Thursday later this week, is considered one of the worst attacks of the Troubles. Nobody has been convicted Appeals have been made to people with information about the Enniskillen bombing to examine their consciences and come forward with information to the police. "The Enniskillen bomb was an act of horrific savagery. It was motivated by nothing other than a desire to kill and maim. It was indiscriminate. Young and old were injured. It was targeting innocent people", says Fermanagh Assembly member Arlene Foster. "This wasn't executed by one or two people. A team of people were involved. "Twenty five years after the explosion, someone somewhere knows something about the perpetrators. Someone knows where the bomb was made, how it was transported and who planned the attack. This wasn't executed by one or two people. A team of people were involved. "Anyone who can bring any information to the police should do so. Perhaps in 1987 they didn't feel able but as they watch the victims and relatives on Thursday I hope they will be moved to help the police with the investigation."
