RNU: Internment of Tony Taylor

RNU Ard Chomhairle member Tony Taylor had his license revoked by the Secretary of State yesterday. He now finds himself in Maghaberry, yet to find out why.

Republican Network for Unity condemn the incarceration of Ard Chomhairle member Tony Taylor who has had his license revoked by the British Secretary of State today.

Tony is a popular Republican who has spearheaded the revival of RNU in the Derry area and this is why he now finds himself in Maghaberry Gaol.
The provocative act of revoking his license is an attempt to quell Tony's determination to build a Republican alternative in the North West, and it is another blatant attempt to put RNU out of business. The state and their various forces have been working tirelessly to halt RNU's progress and ensure the party won't make it to the Easter 2016 celebrations. Suffice to say - they will fail.

Here we have another blatant case of internment, whereby a Republican has been sent straight to Maghaberry without crime or trial. The state refuse to disclose why he finds himself in jail, this absolves them from any legal challenge. A few years ago we witnessed the same treatment of Martin Corey, Tony's case has a striking resemblance. He must be returned to his family immediately.
