Loyalist campaign to drive Catholics from Larne
Sectarian tension is mounting in Larne, as nationalists in the County
Antrim town have been targeted in a loyalist hate campaign.
Loyalists have been driving around mixed estates in Larne with
loudspeakers and are naming Catholics and threatening them to leave
their homes. The loyalists have also gone to local pubs and clubs and
warned the owners and bar staff not to serve Catholics.
According to information An Phoblacht has received, it is mainstream
loyalist paramilitaries who are involved in this latest terror
campaign.
``They have been determined for some time to up the ante, and it is
clearly members of the UDA and UVF who are behind it,'' said one local
nationalist.
