Clean slate for ex-terror offenders, says SF
The criminal records of people who served jail sentences in Northern Ireland for terrorist offences should be cleared, Sinn Féin delegates demanded at their annual conference in Dublin today.
Former hunger striker Raymond McCartney, who stood for Sinn Féin in Foyle in last November’s Assembly elections, told the party’s Ard Fheis that the demand was not an attempt to “airbrush the past“.
