DHSS colluding with Crown Forces
By Sean O'Tuama
Sinn Fein councillor, Michael Browne, has condemned a series of
raids by DHSS officials in partnership with the RUC and British
Army.
Although these new joint operations have taken place throughout
the Six Counties they have been concentrated in the West Belfast
and Fermanagh areas.
``The link between the DHSS and the RUC is of particular concern
considering the reputation which they (the RUC) have for
terrorising whole communities,'' said Browne, ``This activity
provides the RUC with further excuses to continue with their
campaign of intimidation against the Nationalist community. The
DHSS should not allow itself to be used in this way.''
Browne added that there was ``widespread anger'' in the Nationalist
community over this issue and that the DHSS must be aware that it
was unacceptable for them to be linked to that ``sectarian force.''
Mr Browne is urgently calling for a meeting with DHSS chiefs to
explain why they are allowing themselves to be used by the RUC.
