Nella giornata di ieri il ritorno a casa della salma di Ronan Kerr, il neo agente della PSNI ucciso da una booby trap bomb sabato 2 aprile a Omagh

La salma di Ronan Kerr, l’agente della PSNI ucciso all’età di 25 anni, nel pomeriggio di sabato 2 aprile, ha fatto ritorno a casa nella serata di ieri. Una scorta della polizia ha accompagnato il corteo in lento viaggio verso Beragh.
I funerali sono stati fissati per domani 6 aprile. La cerimonia sarà celebrata presso la Chiesa dell’Immacolata Concezione a mezzogiorno, e seguirà la sepoltura presso il cimitero di Drumduff.
Certa la presenza del Primo Ministro Peter Robinson, e si ritiene probabile la partecipazione del Taoiseach Enda Kenny.
L’Irish Congress of Trade Unions ha organizzato una marcia pacifica a Belfast per dar modo alla popolazione di manifestare il proprio orrore per l’assassinio.
