Victims of Provisional IRA bombings in England will discontinue their damages claim against former Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams.
Mr Adams was being sued for £1 in damages by three men injured in the blasts in the 1970s and 1990s.
John Clark, a victim of the 1973 Old Bailey bombing in London; Jonathan Ganesh, a 1996 London Docklands bombing victim; and Barry Laycock, a victim of the 1996 Arndale shopping centre bombing in Manchester all alleged that Mr Adams was a leading member of the Provisional IRA on those dates, including of its Army Council.
The former Sinn Féin president denied the allegations and was defending the claim, telling the court earlier this week that he had “no involvement whatsoever” in the bombings and was never a member of the Provisional IRA.
