Protesters picket Cork County sheriff’s office over eviction

Protesters defied threats of an injunction yesterday to picket the Cork County Sheriff’s office over the eviction of a family in rent arrears for almost two years, writes Eoin English.

The protest by about a dozen members of the Anti Eviction Taskforce at the city centre office of Sinead McNamara followed her enforcement of an order for repossession of a house in Bantry, in West Cork.
