Kenneth Littlejohn
Kenneth Littlejohn (aka Kenneth Austen; born c. 1941) is a convicted armed robber and gaol-breaker who claimed to be a Secret Intelligence Service/Official IRA double agent. The Littlejohn affair concerned allegations of British espionage and use of agent provocateurs in the Republic of Ireland during the Troubles.
==Beginnings==
Littlejohn had been dishonourably discharged from the Parachute Regiment. He served three years for robbery before being released from prison in 1968 from which time he worked as a car dealer.〔''The Dirty War'' By Martin Dillon; ISBN 0-415-92281-X〕
In 1970 the Midland Motor Cylinder Company in Smethwick, Birmingham was robbed of £38,000. The wages clerk, Brian Perks, claimed to have been overpowered by an Indian man who then took the money. Perks was Littlejohn's brother-in-law and the police suspected a staged incident involving the two men.〔''Danger to brothers' lives in jail increased'' ; The Times, 8 August 1973; pg2; col C )〕
Littlejohn claims he went on the run, first to London, where he made contact with a police officer who showed him his arrest warrant and advised him to move to Dublin. In December 1970, in Dublin, he set up a company, Whizz Kids (Ireland) Ltd. He moved to Cahersiveen seeking a potential development site for a factory. As a flash potential investor who bought drinks for all in the local pubs, he became well known and popular in the area. In Kerry Littlejohn claimed he was shown a Kalashnikov supposedly smuggled in by Russian sailors. Littlejohn turned down several potential development sites and left unpaid debts when he returned to Dublin.〔p88-89 ''The Dirty War'' By (Martin Dillon ); ISBN 0-415-92281-X〕
