Shergar, real story, today's Sunday Telegraph.

Haven't seen it but told today's paper purports to tell the real story about how the horse was killed, seemingly machine-gunned to death in Co. Leitrim. Cannot find a link.

Thanks.

Interesting reading, I would not have a clue if it was true or not, but still enjoyable reading. If it is the 25th anniversary of the kidnapping, I am guessing many papers will have the *real* story of what happened, but like I said, without a body, we can never be 100% sure.

If this guy Mallon is prepared to talk, he could shed much light on the story.

Thanks for this. I think I'll go out and buy the Torygraph today. It has become quite good lately.

I wonder does the Telegraph's improvement have anything to do
with the departure of Conrad Black and his equally ghastly wife
Barbara?

Have Sinn Féin reviewed their Animal rights policies since then?

Somewhere in South Armagh is a signed confession from Shergar. It would be politically embarrassing to have it unveiled now, but it is believed the horse admits to consorting with the British Royal family at Ascot and to taking pleasure at being fondled in a gin-fuelled episode by the late Queen Mother. People have been executed for less !

Great read, I think his groom sums it up well "Shergar was a grand horse and he deserved better."
