SF condemns dissident threats against community workers

Wednesday, 26 November 2008

Sinn Fein has criticised threats made by dissident republicans against community workers in north Belfast.

The party says the threats were made by the Continuity IRA against workers co-operating with the police in nationalist communities.

Sinn Fein MLA Gerry Kelly says the threats are contemptible given the good work being carried out by community groups.

He is calling for them to be lifted immediately.
