MI5 delayed revealing an undercover agent linked to 13 murders, harming investigations and eroding trust.
Report into Operation Kenova revealed MI5 failed to promptly disclose critical information about its undercover agent Stakeknife, widely believed to be Freddie Scappaticci, who served in the IRA’s internal security unit and was linked to at least 13 murders and other serious crimes.
The intelligence service knew of the agent’s involvement in violence for decades but delayed releasing evidence, undermining investigations and eroding public trust.
The report concluded the operation likely caused more deaths than lives saved and urged the UK government to break its "Neither Confirm Nor Deny" policy, issue a formal apology, and acknowledge state complicity in enabling killings during the Troubles.
Families of victims called the lack of naming and accountability an insult and a betrayal.
