It was assisted by Royal Ulster Constabulary Special Branch officers. The purpose of this operation was to bring pressure to bear on persons whom they suspected of having knowledge to disclose about the triple murder that would incriminate the suspects in question and/or others.

Famous quotes containing the words operation and/or century:

    It is critical vision alone which can mitigate the unimpeded operation of the automatic.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    In front of that sinner of a husband,
    she rattled off
    only those words
    that her pack of vile-tongued girlfriends
    taught her
    as fast as she could,
    and after,
    began to behave
    at the Love-god’s beck and call.
    It’s indescribable,
    this natural, charming
    path of love,
    paved with the gems
    of inexperience.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
