MEP welcomes court verdict on police
03 July 2007
STATEMENT BY JIM ALLISTER MEP
“In welcoming today’s High Court ruling in favour of the police, I view with disgust the response of Sinn Fein. Sinn Fein should be hanging their heads in shame considering it was their IRA’s vicious campaign of murder and mayhem which lay at the root of the stress and trauma caused to gallant police officers. Yet, consistent with the fact that their anti-police bile still rules their minds and hearts, this supposed party of government attacks justice for policemen.
It is now imperative that from this finding we move to credible compensation for those affected. Instead of wasting valuable resources on raking over the past, the NIO should now commit to funding these deserving claims.”
