Son fears for health of elderly peace activist returned to jail

The son of jailed Anti-War Activist Margaretta D'Arcy has expressed concerns for his elderly mother's health as she has returned to Limerick Prison this afternoon.

The 79-year-old Galway woman was before Ennis District Court today for further charges in relation to protests at Shannon Airport and it is believed she may be transferred to Mountjoy Prison due to her ongoing treatment for bladder cancer and arthritis.
