Ihab Shoukri and the UDA murder of Gerard Lawlor


Listen Later

Gerard Lawlor, a young father and Gaelic football player, was murdered in a drive-by shooting four years after the Good Friday Agreement. He was killed during a night of mayhem ordered by UDA boss Ihab Shoukri - his killing was the fifth gun attack in a four-mile radius that night as Loyalist paramilitaries searched for a Catholic victim. 21 years later, no one has been charged with the murder. Sunday Life Journalist Ciarán Barnes spoke to Ciarán Dunbar about the story.
