| Ten years ago, Danny Morrison was found guilty of being an accomplice in the kidnap and interrogation of a police informer, Sandy Lynch, who had been held and interrogated by the IRA for two days in 124 Carrigart Avenue, Belfast. |
| He was deprived of food, just as Sandy Lynch was, and indeed, as poor Danny Morrison was the other day on the train from Belfast (though only for a while, you'll rejoice to hear), he finally got a fry in a soda farl. |
| In the case of Sandy Lynch, some time later Danny Morrison arrived at the house and was arrested in a police raid. |
