It's late September 1983, Northern Ireland and a group of prisoners, all members of the IRA or Irish Republican Army, are on the run. They've escaped from Europe's most secure jail, the Maze.
The biggest prison escape in Northern Ireland's history has led to one of the most intensive searches ever seen here as every available soldier and policeman was called in, along with helicopters and police dogs.
It was a huge, huge, huge operation. It's probably one of the biggest IRA operations in the history of the conflict.
Prisoner Brendan "Bik" McFarlane was committed to the fight for independence from British rule. He was serving a life sentence for his part in a gun and bomb attack against a unionist pub in Belfast. Five were killed and another 60 people were injured. In prison he continued his IRA activities and when the escape plan was hatched, Bik was at the forefront.
Only very very few people were aware of this here because of the potential for a, you know, what we termed as loose talk and being overheard. So it was kept very very tight.
They'd been planning the escape for months.大约30年前,38名犯人从北爱尔兰高度戒备的“迷宫”监狱越狱。丽贝卡·盖茨比采访到当事人之一。
1983年9月末,北爱尔兰监狱一小撮囚犯和北爱共和军所有成员越狱。他们成功地从欧洲戒备最为森严的监狱“迷宫”中逃脱。
鉴于这次北爱尔兰史上最大规模的越狱行动,当局实施了最严密的搜捕措施,几乎动用了所有的士兵和警察、直升机及警犬。
这是规模非常之大的行动。这很可能是北爱尔兰共和军在北爱问题冲突中最大规模的行动。
囚犯布伦丹"比克"麦克法兰被指控为争取北爱从英国统治中独立出来而斗争。他因在贝尔法斯特持枪且用炸弹袭击统一党酒馆而被判无期徒刑。该事件中有5人丧生,60人受伤。在狱中,他继续共和军活动,且担当这次越狱筹划工作的主谋。
只有极少数人知道这个行动,因为它很有可能通过闲谈或者不小心听到而泄密。所以这个计划极其保密。
他们谋划越狱行动长达数月之久。
