Pope honours Maguire Seven gran

[emad]

A great-grandmother wrongly imprisoned for nine years following two IRA bomb attacks has received a papal honour.

Anne Maguire, 68, of Willesden, north London, was alleged to have passed nitro-glycerine to the IRA in the seventies to make bombs.

The Archbishop of Westminster Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor presented the Bene Merenti medal at the Sacred Heart of Jesus parish in north London.

It was bestowed on Mrs Maguire by Pope John Paul II three days before he died.

THE LOCALS call the Sacred Heart Church 'the Provos' Cathedral' because it is so big and ugly.....
