The allegations made against Mr. Adams by BBC in a 2016 programme, suggesting his involvement in the killing of Denis Donaldson, are being firmly contested.
Mr. Adams argues that the BBC's claims constitute defamation, asserting that the accusations against him are not only untrue but damaging to his reputation.
The BBC maintains that their reporting was conducted in good faith, asserting that the subject matter is of significant public interest and was supported by thorough investigation.
The legal proceedings are set for April 29, 2025, in the Four Courts of Dublin, where the case is anticipated to last around three weeks.
