Martin McGuinness has accused his enemies of “trying to have him killed” by claiming he was a British spy.
The Sinn Féin chief negotiator has also revealed his fury that allegations he once worked for MI6 had been published, but admitted he was powerless to stop them.
The claims against him were printed in a Sunday tabloid newspaper.
Mr McGuinness rubbished the rumours and blamed factions within the DUP, who, he maintained want to wreck the Northern Irish peace process.
