Carrauntoohil cross footage ‘genuine’
Anti-Catholic messages are on the video relating to the Church’s control of primary schools and gardaí are continuing their investigation into the criminal damage of the cross on Carrauntoohil. It was re-erected last weekend.
The video footage, anonymously sent to the Journal.ie news website, shows a person using what appears to be an angle grinder at the base of the steel cross. It also indicates more than one person was involved. The incident has caused outrage in the community of Beaufort, Co Kerry, which is now looking at the possibility of installing cameras.
