Protest Continues In Maghaberry.

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | press release author Monday June 26, 2006 16:45author by Séan Ó Murchú - Republican Sinn Féin - Cork Report this post to the editors

On Monday 26th June 2006 Republican POW’s in Maghaberry will begin the second phase of their Prison Protest and will be refusing to eat meals in their cells. The RPAG would like to stress that the POW’s are not on Hunger Strike.

On Monday 26th June 2006 Republican POW’s in Maghaberry will begin the second phase of their Prison Protest and will be refusing to eat meals in their cells. The RPAG would like to stress that the POW’s are not on Hunger Strike.
POW’s on the Segregated wing are denied access to canteen facilities and are forced to eat meals in their cells in close proximity to the toilet.
This is a practical problem that we believe results from the policy of Controlled Movement enforced on the Segregated landing. This policy prevents any more than three prisoners being allowed out of their cells at any one time and requires a staff to prisoner ratio of 4:2 and 3:1. The RPAG consider that the policy of Controlled Movement is excessively restrictive and POW’s will not tolerate these conditions any longer.
The Prison Protest began on Monday 19th June 2006 and will continue until the five demands outlined by the POW’s are addressed.

FREE ASSOCIATION
END TO CONTROLLED MOVEMENT
RIGHT TO FULL TIME EDUCATION
SEPARATE VISITING FACILITY
RIGHT TO ORGANISE OUR OWN LANDINGS

POW’s in Portlaoise Prison have expressed support for the Prison Protest and will begin a 24hour fast on Wednesday 28th June in solidarity with their comrades in Maghaberry. They have indicated that this will continue each week for the foreseeable future and in a statement issued from Portlaoise have called for support for the POW’s in Maghaberry in their fight to win back Political Status.

It is very important that the public get behind these prisoners and stand up to the British government and their prison service. These men are being ill treated while across the prision yard, Drug dealers, Sex offenders and Loyalists are being granted the basic rights that these men deserve! SUPPORT THE REPUBLICAN PRISONERS IN MAGHABERRY!
