Gerry Adams investigation by police 'not politically motivated', ombudsman says

A recommendation not to prosecute Gerry Adams over allegations he withheld information on sexual abuse within his family was not politically motivated, a police watchdog has found.

The Police Ombudsman launched an inquiry after a complaint was made that police did not fully investigated claims against the Sinn Féin president. The ombudsman said the police probe into the allegations was conducted properly.
