An Ulster-based Army unit may have been involved in the shoot-to-kill death of an innocent Brazilian in London last month, it has been reported.

The secretive 14 Int, a branch of the Special Reconnaissance Regiment used during operations in Ulster, has been in London since the July 7 bombings.

Soldiers from the undercover unit are believed to have taken part in the surveillance operation on Jean Charles de Menezes who was killed by a plain clothes police team as he entered Stockwell tube station on July 22.

A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Defence told the Sunday Times: "We would describe it as technical assistance as part of a police-led operation under police control.

"It is a particular military capability that the police can draw on if needed. It was a low-level involvement in support of a police-controlled operation."
