Suspected IRA member sentenced to six years

A suspected former member of the Irish Republican Army (IRA) was sentenced to six years in prison by a German court on Tuesday for his role in the foiled bombing of a British army base here 17 years ago. The court said it was clear that Leonard Joseph Hardy (45) had taken part in the bombing of the Quebec barracks in Osnabrueck, in western Germany, in June 1989.
