DES Dalton, President of Republican Sinn Féin was arrested outside Lurgan, Co Armagh on tonight, Wednesday, July 6 at around 8pm. He was on his way to speak at a protest march in support of the Maghaberry POWs in the Drumbeg Estate in Lurgan. He was informed by the RUC/PSNI that he was being arrested in connection with an ‘illegal march’. The march in question was held in Belfast on January 23 in support of the Republican POWs in Maghaberry jail and in particular drawing attention to the case of Martin Corey, whose licence was revoked last year without any reason being given. |

Jump To Comment: 1The Vice-President of Republican Sinn Féin, Fergal Moore, was arrested tonight in Lurgan, Co Armagh, This follows the arrest earlier this evening of Republican Sinn Féin President Des Dalton, who is still being held.
Republican Sinn Féin condemns the arrest of its President and Vice-President by British Crown Forces. Harassment and intimidation will not deter us from our main objective -- a 32-County Ireland, free from foreign interference.
Correction: The march which Des Dalton was arrested in connection with was held in Lurgan (not Belfast) on January 23 in support of the Republican POWs in Maghaberry jail and in particular drawing attention to the case of Martin Corey, whose licence was revoked last year without any reason being given.
