Avvertimento del 32 County Sovereignty Movement ai negozianti di Derry

32CSM warn shops on police

Hardline republicans in Derry are planning to send letters to shops and businesses in the city urging them not to serve members of the PSNI.

Derry, Foyle riverThe 32 County Sovereignty Movement claim to have drawn up a list of businesses and a number of schools in the city who deal with the police and will be contacting them shortly.

The group says letters will be sent to the premises highlighting what they describe as the “unacceptable behaviour” of the PSNI.

A spokesperson for the group told the ‘Journal’ that, if their request for businesses to shun members of the PSNI is ignored, they will stage pickets and “name and shame” shops.

‘Not a threat’

The spokesperson insists that the letter “is not a threat” and will be circulated to shops in the coming weeks.

“The Sovereignty Movement will be sending letters to businesses explaining our view on the RUC.

“It will explain the conduct of the police in terms of stopping and searching children and the families of republicans,” he said.
The spokesperson also said they have been contacted by workers who had concerns about serving police officers. “We are aware that staff in some shops have been put under pressure to serve policemen and have been forced to do so by their bosses,” he claimed.

May be sent to schools

The 32CSM spokesperson also said the letters could be sent to local schools. “Schools could be included in the list of people who will receive the letters.

“We are not trying to bully schools but we want to highlight the fact that children area being searched on their way to school.

“This is not a threat and will be done in an above board way. The letters will contain a contact number that people can call if they want more information,” he said.
