A leading SDLP man in Derry has decided to leave his home in the Bogside area of the city after a campaign of intimidation by dissident republicans.
Local councillor Pat Ramsey is understood to be moving his family across the River Foyle to the mainly Protestant Waterside area following a string of attacks on his current home.
The house has been targeted with petrol bombs 15 times in the past two and a half years and has also been at the centre of a number of hoax alerts.
Mr Ramsey has apparently been targeted because of his membership of the local District Policing Partnership.
