Prince William security beefed up over IRA attack fear

New Delhi: The security cover for Britain's Princes, William and Harry has allegedly been stepped up.

This enhancement has taken place over fears that Irish Republican Army (IRA) terrorists are plotting to kill them.

Scotland Yard fears that the Princes, who are officers in the British Army, are prize targets for the IRA.

So the number of officers guarding the princes has gone up from two to three and they are being reinforced by a back-up team of two.
