SF concerned by ‘lack of action’ against loyalists

There is considerable concern in the nationalist community at the lack of action by the security forces to deal with loyalist violence in North Belfast, a Sinn Fein Assembly member said tonight.

The party’s policing spokesman, Gerry Kelly, criticised police and army tactics against republicans over the Castlereagh police station break-in, contrasting it with their action to deal with loyalists behind recent disturbances in North Belfast.
