In the Name of the Father (1993): the Inspector Testimony

The clip the inspector testimony from In the Name of the Father (1993)

Sir Michael Hagerty will present the case on behalf of the Crown.
There are two series of charges here, ladies and gentlemen.
The four defendants in front...
are charged with 11 counts in relation to the explosion of the Guildford pub...
and the murders of five people.
The Crown will show that these were the bombers.
The seven defendants behind...
are charged with the possession of explosives, not charged with murder.
The Crown's case against them is...
that they are a support network for the bombers, and as such...
should be considered independent.
Control yourself. Pay attention.
My first witness is Inspector Robert Dixon.
I swear by Almighty God that the evidence I give shall be the truth...
the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Inspector, why do you believe these four are the bombers?
First Hill, then Conlon, Armstrong, Richardson...
confessed to the bombing.
They are the IRA's ASU.
Can you explain ASUs for us?
Active Service Unit. They are the elite of the IRA...
who carry out the bombings and the shootings.
Often they are combat veterans with experience of shooting at soldiers...
and planting explosives.
And the others... Annie Maguire and her family?
They are the IRA's support network.
Their families and friends store the weapons and explosives...
and they provide what we call "safe houses. "
Thank you, Inspector.
These people were arrested two days...
after the Prevention of Terrorism Act was introduced.
