Arrestato Des Dalton, presidente del Republican Sinn Fein

Des Dalton, presidente del Republican Sinn Fein, è stato arrestato stasera fuori Lurgan intorno alle 20. Si stava recando nel quartiere di Drumbeg, sempre a Lurgan, per tenere un discorso durante una marcia di protesta a sostegno dei POW di Maghaberry.

E’ stato informato dalla PSNI che stava per essere arrestato per una “parata illegale”. La marcia in questione si svolse a Belfast il 23 gennaio, a favore dei prigionieri repubblicani detenuti a Maghaberry ed in particolare intendeva evidenziare il caso di Martin Corey, la cui licenza di rilascio anticipato venne revocata nel 2010 senza alcuna ragione.
