Ms Cathy McIlvenny:

I think most people in Northern Ireland now want to live in peace. They want this to go away. However, there are certainly elements within communities that are keeping it very much under the table because of funding. However, they still have a chokehold on and are still running their communities. They might be wearing suits and meeting all different kinds of people but at night-time they are giving out orders to destroy their own areas.

I am at the stage where I am finding it very hard to believe that I will ever get justice for my sister, my nephew’s mother, because they keep putting things back. In my sister's case, they did that until my father died but I have carried it on since his death. I do not want my children to have to do it. I want things answered and a court case. I will accept what comes out in the court case. I do not want this feeling that the police and politicians all know and they are just keeping it under the table. I believe the politicians know what is going on in Northern Ireland within the unionist community. I believe they know what is going on and are the ones who are meeting these paramilitary leaders in the guise of community development. They know exactly what is going on on the ground and the ordinary working-class people are being left to manage and fight on their own.
