Two persons were arrested for the murders of the Reverend Bradford and Mr. Kenneth Campbell, interviewed and released without charge. Despite an extensive police investigation no persons have to date been made amenable for these crimes.

In respect of Mr. Graham's murder, one person, convicted of making property available and withholding information was sentenced to two years imprisonment suspended for three years. Another was convicted of withholding information and sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment suspended for two years. A number of other persons were arrested and interviewed in relation to this murder.

The RUC review all murder investigations. New or further evidence will be acted upon with diligence.
