Political status is a right not a privilege.

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | press release author Wednesday June 28, 2006 14:06author by Séan Ó Murchú - Republican Sinn Féin Report this post to the editors

IN A statement on June 28 Republican Sinn Féin, Belfast said that in 2006 Irish Republicans were still incarcerated for their political beliefs.

IN A statement on June 28 Republican Sinn Féin, Belfast said that in 2006 Irish Republicans were still incarcerated for their political beliefs.

The statement continued: In 1981 ten brave men died for the fight for political status. Twenty-five years later the fight still goes on. Today Republican prisoners have once again found it necessary to resort to prison protest.

We urge all Republicans to support the prisoners in their struggle to gain back the right to be treated as POWs. These men are prisoners of war and deserve to be treated as such.

1981: They were political prisoners then
2006: They are political prisoners now.

Help end the prison struggle; support the Republican POWs. Political status is a right not a privilege.

We like to call on all ex-prisoners' group to come out and show their support for all political prisoners who are on protest in Maghaberry Concentration Camp. We ask them to join in white-line pickets and any other protest organised by the Republican Prisoners Action Group and Republican Sinn Féin.

We need everyone to show their support -- come to the white-line picket and support the prison protest.
