Eh... The person stating that this was the case was speaking on behalf of the UPRG, who're basically a front for the UDA- not that surprising that he'd deny their involvement. The BBC article didn't bother to mention that I notice. But since they're so heavily involved in drug trafficing and dealing- much more profitable than terrorism- they've got a huge amount to gain from competing dealers being taken off the street, so they're natural suspects. I bet you a pound this wasn't random members of the public.

Of course, setting yourself up selling drugs in competition to an irish paramilitary organisation isn't that bright.
