Peacekeeper Sean's killer looks set to escape justice

- BY JOHN KIERANS

THE evil Hezbollah killer of hero peacekeeper Private Sean Rooney's looks set to get away with murder.

Frustrated Irish diplomats say the Lebanese government has made little or no progress in locating Mohammad Ayyad and the chances of bringing him to justice are slim.

They are absolutely convinced he is hiding out in Iran, who finance the Hezbollah terror group, and has long left south Lebanon where he lived.

The gunman was arrested and detained in custody a few months after the December 14, 2022 UN convoy shooting in which Sean from Dundalk, Co Louth, died and three of his colleagues were injured.

Expect a rule of Laur

NEWSBOY'S ITV SELECTIONS POET LAUREATE gets the vote to make the most of the weight he receives from rivals in the Fitzdares Sovereign Handicap Hurdle (3.35) at Windsor. The form of his two-and-three-quarter-length defeat of Phoenix Risen at Wincanton nine days before Christmas needs improving on, but the Chris Gordon trainee has plenty more to come. Nemean Lion defends his title in the Weatherbys Cheltenham Festival Betting Guide Hurdle (3.00), but preference is for ALTOBELLI, for whom conditions are tailor made. LARGY FORCE is also at her best when the mud is flying, and a 2lb rise for a score at Uttoxeter may not be enough to prevent the follow-up in the Fitzdares Mares' Handicap Chase (2.25). He'll go off at cramped odds for the Grade 2 Fitzdares Your Personal Bookmaker Lightning Novices' Chase (1.50) but BE AWARE should make no mistake.
