Thread Name: Origins: Sean South of Garryowen (Sean Costelloe)
Subject: RE: Origins: Sean South of Garryowen
There is a great account of sean south's life and death in 'Milestones in Murder' by Hugh Jordan. The author is from Glasgow, but lives in Ireland. He claims the Brookeborough raid in which South and O'Hanlon were killed was betrayed by an informer called George Poyntz. Poyntz survived as a police mole inside the IRA for 40 years until he was pulled out in the 1990's.
