Unionist: IRA must surrender acquisitions
The IRA must surrender every property, piece of land or business it has acquired over five decades if Sinn Féin is to have a future policing or justice minister in Northern Ireland, a unionist claimed tonight.
After meeting US Congressmen in Belfast, Ulster Unionist member of the Northern Ireland Policing Board Fred Cobain MLA warned the Northern Ireland Office (NIO) that it must not ignore any ill-gotten gains republicans may have amassed before last July’s IRA statement declaring an end to its armed campaign.
