Those plans have been put on hold until after Sean O’Callaghan, a former republican jailed for two murders, testifies at the High Court trial in Belfast. O’Callaghan is due to be called next month to try to prove a series of claims he has made against McKevitt. One of these involves allegations that the pair attended a meeting with other senior Provisionals in the mid- 1980s to discuss buying deer-hunting rifles to kill soldiers and police officers. O’Callaghan, a special branch agent who says he was once in charge of the IRA’s southern command, is also to be questioned about his claims that he issued instructions for McKevitt to stop taking vehicles from a Provisional IRA car pool without permission. A further issue which lawyers for the Omagh victims families have been given permission to explore with him centres on allegations that a former IRA chief of staff told him he wanted McKevitt voted onto the paramilitary organisation’s executive.

Map showing the 'Western line' and blast locations. The 11 July 2006 Mumbai train bombings were a series of seven bomb blasts that took place over a period of 11 minutes on the Suburban Railway in Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay), capital city of the Indian state of Maharashtra and India's financial capital. 209 people lost their lives and over 700 were injured in the attacks. Details The bombs were placed on trains plying on the western line of the suburban ("local") train network, which forms the backbone of the city's transport network. The first blast reportedly took place at 18:24 IST (12:54 UTC), and the explosions continued for approximately eleven minutes, until 18:35, during the after-work rush hour. All the bombs had been placed in the first-class "general" compartments (some compartments are reserved for women, called "ladies" compartments) of several trains running from Churchgate, the city-centre end of the western railway line, to the western suburbs of the city. They exploded at or in the near vicinity of the suburban railway stations of Matunga Road, Mahim, Bandra, Khar Road, Jogeshwari, Bhayandar and Borivali.
