'Threats to kill' blamed on agents

TWO dissident republicans have been told by the PSNI their lives are under threat, they claimed yesterday. A letter to one of the Derry men from the PSNI stated that "Dissident Repubicans may seek to take some form of unspecified action against you". Another letter, also signed by a senior police officer, to the second man, stated that "elements within the Real IRA believe you to be an informer".

The recipient of this letter said he was also visited at his home by five police officers on Wednesday night who told him "you are going to be shot".

Both men have described the letters as "the work of MI5" and said that the purpose was to create divisions within the dissident republican movement in Derry.
