Relatives of people killed by the British security forces in the North were present yesterday at the Waterfront Hall in Belfast for President Clinton's visit.
Mrs Eilish McCabe, a spokesperson for Relatives for Justice, whose brother, Mr Aidan McAnespie (23), was shot dead by the British army in 1988, presented Mr Clinton with a letter outlining how almost 400 people in the North have been killed by British troops.
Also present was Mrs Jean McBride, the mother of Mr Peter McBride. The two soldiers convicted of killing her son were released from prison on Wednesday after serving six years of their life sentences for murder.
