Monsignor Raymond Murray of the JFTC2

Posted by Jim on January 22, 2015

Once again, human and civil rights activists in the north of Ireland are looking to Irish-American organizations like the AOH (FFAI) Brehon Law Society and the IAUC to help put pressure on the British government to put an end to the continued miscarriages of justice by the British government and the Diplock courts that serve them.  
Monsignor Raymond Murray, long time activist for human rights in NI, and Independent CCL Angela Nelson, along with the Craigavon 2 defense team: Sean Finucane (son of Pat Finucane) and Peter Corrigan (former attorney for Gerry McGeough)  have been asking for our help and support in getting this tragedy of justice and unsafe conviction overturned.
Won’t you please help?

Dublin TD Maureen O’ Sullivan yesterday raised the miscarriage of justice of the Craigavon Two with Taoiseach Enda Kenny in the Irish Parliament.
Maureen O’Sullivan : “Our group is also concerned with miscarriages of justice similar to those suffered by the Birmingham Six and the Guildford Four. The late Gerry Conlon took up the issue of the Craigavon Two. The two men concerned have been in prison for a number of years, despite the fact that the case was not proved against them; it was reliant on the word of a very dubious witness and the forensic evidence was contradictory and discredited. However, the men will be in prison for another two years while they wait for their case to go before the UK Supreme Court.”
