Omagh Compensation Agency faces further criticism
The father of a second victim of the Omagh bomb has criticised the Compensation Agency for the way it treated people injured in the 1998 attack.
Kevin Skelton, whose wife died in Omagh, said his 16-year-old daughter was deeply upset at how compensation lawyers had treated her.
She has scars on one side of her face and allegedly heard one lawyer remark that it would have been far worse if both sides were scarred.
Yesterday, another person injured in the bombing revealed how she was forced to strip to her underwear to show a panel of six lawyers the scars on her thigh.
The British government has promised to investigate that claim.
