Austin Stack: ‘The IRA couldn’t admit my father’s murder was sanctioned because of political repercussions’


Listen Later

Brian Stack was the chief officer in the maximum security Port Laoise prison, which housed IRA members.


In March 1983, he was gunned down by the IRA in Dublin after attending a boxing match – he succumbed to his wombs 18 months later. Austin Stack has long fought for the truth and for justice for his father, meeting with Sinn Féin and IRA officials, including Gerry Adams, to try and get to the bottom of the killing. 


He joined Ciarán Dunbar.
