October 21, 2012: The police ombudsman has launched an investigation into possible collusion between the force and senior members of the UVF in the Shankill area of Belfast. The period in question is from 1989 to 2010 where there may have been inadequate investigations into crimes in west Belfast. The Police Service of Northern Ireland stated that "PSNI are involved in a major investigation into criminality in north and west Belfast involving the UVF which stretches back over a considerable period of time and which runs parallel to the ombudsman investigation Operation Stafford. "With regard to the investigation into the murder of Bobby Moffett, this remains a live investigation into which police have committed very considerable resources and gone to substantial length to bring charges. "PSNI has left no stone unturned in the Moffett investigation and is greatly frustrated that it has not been able, thus far, to bring charges of murder against those involved."
