Protesters to continue fight despite jail terms

ROSSPORT protesters last night vowed to continue their fight against the Corrib gas pipe line despite three of their members being awarded three-month jail sentences.

The three Mayo men were convicted of assaulting a Garda sergeant at a violent protest against the construction of the Bellanaboy gas terminal on October 12, 2006.

Each of the men received a three-month prison sentence and were ordered to pay a €500 fine for their part in the riot.
