Parata repubblicana ‘non autorizzata’, in sostegno della liberazione del prigioniero repubblicano Martin Corey

Nè le ‘minacce’ della PSNI nè gli avvertimenti della Commissione Parate sono valse a fermare la volontà repubblicana di manifestare in sostegno del prigioniero repubblicano Martin Corey.
Una parata repubblicana ‘illegale’ partita da Kilwilkie. La Commissione Parate dopo non aver ricevuto alcuna notifica della marcia la scorsa settimana aveva dichiarato di voler esercitare il proprio potere bloccando lo svolgersi della manifestazione.
Più drastico l’intervento del Police Service of Northern Ireland, intenzionato a perseguire chiunque venga identificato tra i partecipanti alla parata.
Martin Corey, fu condannato all’ergastolo 13 anni fa per l’omicidio di 2 agenti della Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC). Rilasciato nel 1992 dopo aver scontato 19 anni di carcere, si trova ora dietro alla sbarre di Maghaberry dopo che lo scorso aprile gli è stata revocata la licenza di libertà.

Republicans defy police with Lurgan march (Belfast Telegraph)
An illegal republican parade took place in Lurgan yesterday despite warnings from police that anyone involved could face prosecution.
The rally set off from the Kilwilkie estate in support of the Release Martin Corey campaign.
Double-murderer Corey (60) has been held in Maghaberry since last April after his licence was revoked.
He was handed a life sentence in 1973 after killing two RUC men in the same year.
He was released on licence in 1992, having served 19 years.
The Parades Commission last week said they were powerless to stop the march going ahead.
But police said they could take action against anyone involved, adding they had been attempting to contact the organisers ahead of the march.
The Parades Commission confirmed they had not been notified about the rally in advance.
It was not known last night if any arrests were made at yesterday’s parade.
