Segregation could end dirty protest
The dirty protest by republican inmates at Maghaberry Prison in Co Antrim could be called off if the prison authorities continued to segregate them from loyalists, it was claimed today.
Marian Price, spokeswoman for the Real IRA-linked Irish Republican Welfare Association, said the prisoners were currently being held in a special unit at the jail’s Foyle House as punishment for the protest, which began more than two weeks ago over sharing a wing with loyalists.
