The World : IRA Bomb Suspect Named
Five suspected IRA guerrillas, under heavy police guard, were flown to London from Scotland, and one of them, Patrick Joseph Magee, was charged in the bomb attack directed against Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her Cabinet in a Brighton hotel last October. Magee, 34, was also charged with the murders of the five people who died in the bombing. The others were charged with conspiracy to cause explosions in Britain. The Irish Republican Army suspects were among nine persons seized in Glasgow on June 22 after police found a list earmarking 12 British seaside resorts for bombings.
