32CSM Sligo - Anti Social Incidents Must Stop

The 32 County Sovereignty Movement in Sligo has been alarmed by the increasing number of anti social incidents occurring in Sligo town in the past few weeks. These include a man being beaten to death in his own home, a woman being mugged on the way to work, and another elderly man being robbed by masked men. These types of incidents are unfortunately an ever more regular occurrence and we believe this activity must cease.

We regard the current level of such incidents to be intolerable and the inability of the Gardai to deal with them to be inexcusable. We are calling on any concerned residents to contact the 32CSM in the Sligo region if they feel that they are being ignored or let down by the Gardai. The 32CSM has had considerable success in tackling anti social behaviour in many areas and we find that a unified community is usually more than enough to deter such activities.

We also call on any individuals engaging in these crimes against our community to consider carefully the consequences of their actions both for themselves and for their neighbours who they treat with such disdain. We can be contacted through our local email address or talking to a known member, complete confidentiality is guaranteed.

Sligo 32CSM Condemn Politically Motivated Charge

22/08/2010

The 32 County Sovereignty Movement in Sligo would like to unequivocally condemn the continuing harassment of Gary Donnelly by the PSNI/RUC. Having failed to secure his imprisonment in the 26 counties along with the other members of the Derry 4 on trumped up charges they resorted to effective internment. They assaulted Gary earlier this year and then jailed him for 7 months when he refused to pay the British government for being attacked by their proxies.

When Gary's internment helped catalyse support for the plight of the men in Maghaberry their plan backfired spectacularly! Upon his release Gary returned to his work with the many issues the 32CSM are addressing in republican communities in Derry. Hoping to stop the continuing spread of republican principles and seeking to deprive the movement of a dedicated activist the PSNI/RUC have this week tried to charge him with phoning in bomb warnings over a year ago. This is despite the fact that the journalist involved has already stated it was not Gary who contacted him.

The harassment of media figures involved in republican related stories seems to now be a standard tactic despite the embarrassing failure of their attempts to prosecute Suzanne Breen for her integrity. We have no doubt that this show trial will prove to be both an indictment of British policy in the six counties and another victory for press freedom in a supposed democracy.
