Rossport Five stay in prison
Five men jailed for their protests against the construction of a controversial gas pipeline in Co Mayo will remain in prison despite oil giant Shell’s announcement it was suspending work on the project, it emerged today.
The five men were jailed more than five weeks ago for refusing to abide by a High Court order preventing them for obstructing the construction of Shell’s high pressure pipeline from the Corrib gas field to an onshore refinery.
