Taoiseach suggests Sinn Féin activist's arrest may have 'implications for Leinster House'

Taoiseach Micheal Martin said: 'We have seen what happened in Drogheda. We have seen attempts at Ipas centres. I'm aware of individuals who've been threatened, whose family members have been threatened.'

There may be “implications for Leinster House” following confirmation that a Sinn Féin activist who was arrested on terror charges was signed into the building as a guest, the Taoiseach has said.

Micheál Martin said there is a “strong basis” to suggest that this has “moved on from individuals” to an “organised attempt to undermine the State”.
