An IRA sniper convicted of killing the last British soldier to die before the Good Friday peace agreement has been found dead.

Bernard McGinn, aged in his 50s, was a member of a notorious hit squad which targeted members of the security forces during the later years of the 30-year conflict.
His body was discovered today at a house in Monaghan town.

Lance Bombardier Stephen Restorick was murdered in South Armagh in February 1997. He had been talking and smiling to a Catholic woman when he was gunned down.
