Nairac murder accused’s not guilty plea

A County Armagh man has pleaded not guilty to murdering SAS Captain Robert Nairac who was killed exactly 32 years ago but whose body has not been found.

Robert Nairac, SAS © Press EyeKevin Crilly, 59, of Lower Foughill Road, Jonesborough, pleaded not guilty to kidnapping, false imprisonment and murder between 13 and 16 May 1977.

Captain Nairac was on his fourth tour of duty in NI when he was abducted from the Three Steps Inn in south Armagh.

Six men have been jailed in connection with the crime.

Three of the men were found guilty of murder.

A Crown lawyer said the case was “at an advanced stage of preparation”.

However, a defence lawyer said the parties still had to deal with legal issues over hearsay evidence.

Releasing Crilly on continuing bail, Mr Justice Hart said the trial would start at the end of November and last for approximately three weeks.
