The only man convicted of involvement in a 1998 car bomb attack in Omagh, Northern Ireland, was acquitted Wednesday after a retrial, angering survivors of Northern Ireland’s deadliest blast. The three judges of Ireland’s anti-terrorist Special Criminal Court ruled that the police had failed to collect sufficient evidence against the man, Colm Murphy, 57, and had fatally undermined their case by illegally rewriting their records of what they said were Mr. Murphy’s admissions under interrogation. Twenty-nine people, mostly women and children, died and 200 were wounded in the attack by the Real I.R.A., an outlawed breakaway group opposed to the peace agreement that had been negotiated just months before.
