According to latest statistics, the number of families forced out of their<br />
homes is up by a third - with 774 cases recorded in 2009-10. The report<br />
commissioned by the Office of the First Minister and deputy First Minister<br />
recorded 122 cases of paramilitary-style shootings and attacks in 2009,<br />
compared to 56 the previous year. The number of casualties from attacks<br />
more than doubled, while the targeting of Orange Halls increased from 57<br />
cases in 2008 to 77 in 2009.<br />
Director at Institute for Conflict Research, Neil Jarman, says Northern<br />
Ireland is "almost certai<strong>nl</strong>y still bigoted". "There is still a huge amount<br />
of prejudice, not always overt, but it's there. It's underpinned by the<br />
sense of difference between two communities that you see through<br />
residential segregation and segregation in schools", he told UTV.<br />
"All this creates a sense that the 'other lot' is different from us."<br />

Damages claim case brought by wife of IRA informer<br />
---------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
(Belfast Telegraph) Police may seek to halt a legal action brought against<br />
them by the wife of an IRA informer because of her delay in taking the<br />
case, it has emerged.<br />
The High Court was told lawyers are trying to contact ex-officers as part<br />
of their attempts to have Margaret Keely's damages claim against the Chief<br />
Constable dismissed. Mrs Keeley, whose husband is a one-time MI5 agent<br />
known as Kevin Fulton, brought the case over her alleged detention at the<br />
Castlereagh holding centre in 1994 following an IRA attempt to murder<br />
senior RUC detective Derek Martindale in east Belfast. She claims that<br />
after being released she was taken to a house in the New Lodge, north<br />
Belfast, and interrogated by a number of IRA men. Mrs Keeley says she later<br />
suffered a nervous breakdown as a result of her ordeal.<br />
But it has now emerged that police lawyers may try to have the claim thrown<br />
out because it was not brought within a three-year limit from the date of<br />
the incident.<br />

‘back channel’ leading to the dissident leadership.<br />
In a week-long security operation two devices were discovered. This<br />
newspaper understands that on Tuesday they approached a man — a key link in<br />
