An Irish nationalist guerrilla’s wife, killed Saturday in front of her two young sons, was herself suspected of slaying at least six people and planning a 1982 disco bombing that killed 17, police sources in Dublin said. They said her killing, at Dundalk in the Irish Republic 50 miles north of Dublin, was part of a guerrilla power struggle. Officers said that Mary McGlinchey, 33, was believed involved in the killings of a number of suspected Irish National Liberation Army informers and of three policemen. Her husband, Dominic McGlinchey, is a jailed former leader of the INLA, a breakaway group from the outlawed Irish Republican Army.
