The Northern Ireland Executive’s Agriculture Minister, Sinn Féin’s Michelle Gildernew, MP, MLA, has complained to the Republic of Ireland’s government that, “The PSNI have refused to provide information about the extent and nature of the Loyalist death threats against me and other party members in the Fermanagh area. This conceivably heightens the risk because I am unable to take preventative measures. This is totally unacceptable.” Presumably that would be the threats referred to here and the fire mentioned here. This report includes the PSNI response

A PSNI spokeswoman said: “We do not discuss the security of individuals, but where we feel there is a need we will advise them of their security. If she is unhappy she should contact the Police Ombudsman’s office.”
