Alan McCullough (loyalist)

Alan McCullough was a Northern Irish loyalist paramilitary figure active during The Troubles. He was a leading member of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) in the mid-Ulster area, specifically the Portadown district.

McCullough gained notoriety for his alleged involvement in a number of sectarian killings and paramilitary activities. He was considered a key figure in the UVF's operations in County Armagh, particularly during periods of intense violence.

His influence within the UVF diminished following the Good Friday Agreement in 1998 and the subsequent ceasefires declared by loyalist paramilitary groups. While precise details of his later activities are scarce, he remained a known figure within the loyalist community.

Details of McCullough's life, upbringing, and specific activities are often difficult to ascertain due to the clandestine nature of paramilitary organisations and the sensitive historical context. Information regarding his involvement in specific incidents often comes from journalistic accounts, security force reports, and historical analyses of the conflict.
