CARDINAL Sean Brady should be arrested and questioned about withholding information, a victim of paedophile priest Brendan Smyth demanded last night.

Brendan Boland told the Irish Independent that a decision by the PSNI not to investigate the contents of a BBC programme in which he appeared last month showed that gardai should hold an inquiry.

Gardai refused to comment on whether or not they would interview Cardinal Brady.
