Not sure of the "Brit courts" connection but I know Liam Campbell is fighting extradition to Lithuania where his brother was arrested after an MI5 tip-off said he was there to buy weapons (he says he was there to buy fags).

Aye, right.

Could he not have claimed he was "Bird Watching", or have the Provos copyrighted that one?

Real IRA's Michael Campbell found guilty after MI5 sting

An Irish man accused of involvement in weapons smuggling for the Real IRA in Lithuania has been found guilty and sentenced to 12 years in prison.

Michael Campbell, 39, from County Louth was caught in an MI5 weapons sting operation in 2008.

He was convicted of supporting a terrorist group, illegal possession of weapons and attempted smuggling.

He denied the charges against him, saying MI5 had set him up and claiming he was a victim of entrapment.

His two-year trial in Vilnius began in August 2009.

Campbell was secretly filmed test-firing weapons in the Lithuanian countryside, and some of his private conversations were bugged.

In a secretly-recorded conversation, he was overheard talking about planting bombs in London.

He said he wanted weapons for use against "Brits".

Northern Ireland Secretary of State Owen Paterson welcomed the conviction.

"This is another excellent example of what can come from the high levels of co-operation between countries across Europe and beyond in combating terrorism," he said.

"I have no doubt that this will have dealt a blow to RIRA, but we are not complacent and we remain determined to do all that we can to bear down on those who are the enemies of the whole community throughout the United Kingdom."

Ceasefire

The Lithuanians also suspect Campbell's older brother, Liam, of involvement in the gun-smuggling plot.

He is alleged to have been a senior member of the Real IRA and was one of four men found liable for the 1998 Omagh bombing. The civil case was taken by the families of some of the 29 people killed in the attack.

The Lithuanian authorities are trying to extradite Liam Campbell from Belfast, along with Brendan McGuigan, 30, from Omeath in the Republic of Ireland.

Both MGHU and I can read.

And we can both discern that there are no "Brit courts" [sic] in Lithuania.

Perhaps the problem lies with illiterate c u n t s who can't write slogans?

Speaking of which, I wonder could the author of the first reply to the OP enlighten us further?

Testing out the fags before he bought them.
