Inquests into Dublin bombings re-open
Relatives of those killed in the Dublin bombings of 1972/73 have marched on Dublin's Coroner Court today for a resumption of inquests into the killings.
The inquests were originally adjourned shortly after the deaths of three men - George Bradshaw, Thomas Duffy and Thomas Douglas – and were never concluded.
Two car bombs exploded in Dublin on the evening of 1 December 1972 on the third night of the Dáil debate on the Offences Against the State (Amendment) Bill.
The second bomb exploded in Sackville Place killing CIE employees George Bradshaw and Thomas Duffy.
On the afternoon of 20 January 1973, another car bomb exploded in Sackville Place killing Thomas Douglas, a CIE bus conductor, who was a native of Scotland.
