8 arrests in planned police operation

Not much detail on this beyond the headline but it’s worth noting that police have arrested 8 men, 7 in Strabane and 1 in Londonderry, under the Prevention of Terrorism Act.  The reports say the planned raids were in connection with “dissident republican activity”. Adds More details here

  1. Excellent work by the PSNI. Let’s hope there are charges brought.

  2. Pete,

    Can you do a blog on the story in the news about the failure to prosecute the yobs who were attacking the church in East Belfast ?

    Everyone I know has some kind of a negative experience with anti-social behaviour. There are ongoing problems where I live, and the law doesn’t seem to be well-adopted to dealing with them beyond ham-fisted cack-handed efforts such as ASBOs.
