The family of the late IRA hunger striker Raymond McCreesh have rejected suggestions he was involved in the 1976 Kingsmill massacre.
In 2011 the PSNI Historical Enquiries Team said the Provisional IRA was responsible for the “purely sectarian” and “calculated slaughter” of 10 Protestants on January 5th 1976.
