Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch begged republicans up north for help, telling them he feared his family would be killed, IRA man Shane Rowan claims.
In the second part of our exclusive interview with Rowan, he detailed for the first time what he says happened at secret meetings between himself, Hutch, Jonathan Dowdall and other republicans in Northern Ireland in the weeks following the Regency Hotel attack.
“It was like an introductory meeting to say, ‘Look, things are going t*ts up here in Dublin, my family are being threatened, is there anything that youse can do,’” Rowan claimed The Monk told republicans in the meeting in March 2016.
