Hugh Feeney
Hugh Feeney (born 1951) was a volunteer of the Provisional Irish Republican Army who, together with Dolours Price and Marian Price, organised the car bombings of the Old Bailey and Scotland Yard on March 8, 1973. He and ten members of his 11-man active service unit (ASU) were apprehended attempting to board a flight to Ireland shortly after the bombs were discovered.
==Arrest, conviction, and imprisonment==
Feeney was convicted on November 14, 1973 and sentenced to life imprisonment for each of the four bombing charges against him, which were to run concurrently. The other members of his group were sentenced to life imprisonment as well as an additional twenty years. Feeney and other members of the group were incarcerated in Brixton Prison, and participated in a 205-day hunger strike with the goal of being transferred closer to their homes in Northern Ireland. Feeney and the other hunger strikers were force-fed by British authorities for 167 days of their strike. In May 1974, Feeney was one of a group of four prisoners whose transfer out of Brixton was demanded anonymously in exchange for the return of $19.2 million in stolen art. On 4 June 1974, the IRA kidnapped John Hely-Hutchinson, 7th Earl of Donoughmore and his wife in an unsuccessful attempt to exchange them for the release of Feeney, the Prices, and Gerry Kelly.〔 The prisoners ended their hunger strike on 7 June 1974.〔
Feeney was transferred to Long Kesh prison soon after the hunger strike ended. During this period he, along with Brendan Hughes, wrote IRA communiqués and articles for ''Republican News'' under the pen name "Brownie", although most material published under this pseudonym was written by Gerry Adams. After Adams's release, Feeney began writing under the pseudonym "Salon".〔
