Allegations of abuse and trafficking of children to England have centred on the East Belfast home
The notorious Kincora house of horrors was at the heart of correspondence involving British security services, historical Government documents on child abuse have revealed.
Allegations of abuse and trafficking of children to England have centred on the East Belfast home.
The newly released batch of file names reportedly reveal former intelligence officer Colin Wallace raised concerns about abuse at Kincora.
Mr Wallace previously told how he spoke out about the abuse four decades ago – but no action was taken.
Amnesty International said the latest revelations “will only fuel public disquiet that Kincora has been excluded from the one inquiry which has a chance of getting at the truth”.
It has long been suspected well-known figures within the British establishment, including high-ranking civil servants and senior military officers, were involved in the abuse.
