Il fratello di Gerry Adams ha affermato di non volersi arrendere alle forze di polizia nordirlandesi

Liam Adams non si arrenderà alla PSNI. Questo è quanto trapelato pochi giorni dopo che l’uomo si è costituito alla Garda nella città di Sligo. Nell’occasione la polizia irlandese non ha potuto trattenere l’uomo per la mancata richiesta da parte della polizia nordirlandese di un mandato d’arresto internazionale.
Il mandato d’arresto è stato richiesto solo ora dalla PSNI e la sua emissione potrebbe richiedere anche 6 settimane.
Liam Adams, per bocca del proprio avvocato, ha reso noto che non intende consegnarsi alla polizia nordirlandese nella piena convinzione di non poter essere sottoposto ad un equo processo, a causa dell’intensa copertura mediatica a cui sarebbe soggetto.
Il fratello del leader del Sinn Fein, si trova a dover fronteggiare 23 capi d’accusa riconducibili a violenze e molestie perpetrati nei confronti della figlia Aine Tyrell, negli anni ’70 e ’80.
Liam Adams ha comunque negato qualsiasi addebito. E’ trapelato che l’uomo avrebbe trattenuto colloqui di alcune ore con gli investigatori presso la stazione di polizia di Sligo, città dove Adams ha pernottato in una guesthouse non avendo alcun domicilio.

Adams’ brother in PSNI vow (NewsLetter)
Gerry Adams’ brother – wanted over allegations of sexual abuse – has vowed not to turn himself in to the PSNI.
Liam Adams handed himself in to police in the Irish Republic on Monday evening but officers were unable to detain him because Northern Ireland authorities had not applied for the correct warrant.
The international warrant needed to arrest Mr Adams could take six weeks to obtain.
The younger brother of the Sinn Fein president is facing 23 charges of raping and molesting his daughter, Aine Tyrell, in Northern Ireland in the 1970s and 1980s.
Speaking to a Belfast newspaper, Mr Adams’ solicitor said his client believed he would not receive a fair trial in Northern Ireland due to the intense media coverage.
Liam Adams also denied any wrongdoing.
He walked into a Garda station in Co Sligo days after the republican leader issued a public appeal urging him to face up to the allegations levelled against him.
PSNI sources warn it could be late January “at the earliest” before they could obtain a European Arrest Warrant which would enable gardai to take Adams into custody and hand him over.
“The situation won’t change in the near future unless he hands himself in to police in Northern Ireland,” the source added.
The police have been hunting for Adams since last November when he failed to turn up for a court appearance in Belfast. However, it has now emerged that the warrant issued for his arrest then only covered the UK.
Adams, who is in his 50s, is understood to have spoken for a number of hours with senior Garda detectives about his alleged crimes on Monday before leaving the station.
He apparently stayed at a guest house in Sligo that night, but gave no permanent address.
As well as urging his brother to come forward, Gerry Adams has also revealed that his father, Gerry Adams Senior, abused family members before his death.
The allegations surrounding Liam Adams emerged on Friday when his daughter, now 36, waived her right to anonymity and went public with her claims in a documentary on Ulster Television.
In a follow-up TV interview for RTE on Sunday, Gerry Adams then disclosed his father’s dark past for the first time, claiming Mr Adams Snr “emotionally, physically and sexually abused” a number of his siblings over many years.
