Five await sentencing for bombing plot
Three men have been found guilty of plotting to cause explosions during a dissident republican bombing campaign in England two years ago.
Aiden Hulme, 26, his brother Robert Hulme, 23, and Noel Maguire, 34, had originally denied conspiracy to cause explosions to targets such as the BBC Television Centre in London during November 2001.
Two other men, James McCormack, 34, and John Hannan, 19, pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing of plotting to cause the same explosions as part of a Real IRA bombing campaign.
All five men are to be sentenced on Wednesday, April 9.
