Free Dessie O'Hare Campaign
Press Release
Members of the Free Dessie O'Hare Campaign today held a very successful protest along the main border crossing between Derry and Donegal at Bridgend. Up to fifty activists were joined by members of the Free John Brady Campaign and leaflets were handed out highlighting both men's current cases of injustice.
Armagh Republican Dessie O’Hare has been in prison since 1988. He was sentenced to 40 years in jail for a non-capital offence. The Free Dessie O'Hare Campaign remains confident and are increasing our campaigning efforts for the immediate release of Dessie O'Hare. To date Dessie O'Hare has spent over 17 years in Portlaoise and Castlerea gaols however under strand three of the 'Belfast Agreement' its states that, all prisoners whose organisations are on ceasefire will benefit from the early release scheme.
Dessie O'Hare is a recognised Irish National Liberation Army political prisoner of war. Therefore, as the INLA is an organisation which is currently on ceasefire, Dessie O'Hare must benefit from this early release scheme just as others have. The Irish government has already declared Dessie a qualifying prisoner yet they refuse to free him. The Campaign calls on Free State Minister of Justice Michael McDowell to immediately free Dessie O'Hare from his illegal incarceration.
The Free Dessie O'Hare Campaign ask all those concerned with justice both nationally and internationally to help assist Dessie O'Hare to obtain his right to freedom.

McDogwell is the representitive of the justice dept and the regressive fascists. Under their constitution the President is the protector of the constitution, She has the power to grant a pardon. Is that not what happened with Nicky Kelly?
What has Mary McAleese to say about this?
O'Hare was a recognised member of I.N.L.A, he is entitled to release under the good friday agreement. To continue to detain him is clearly an injustice.
whether we agree with his politics or not, he is being unjustly and illegally treated and should seek recognition from amnesty international.
