THE JAILING of Marian Price after British Secretary of State Owen Paterson revoked her licence for release was wrong and she should be freed, Sinn Féin deputy chair of the Justice Committee Raymond McCartney MLA has said.
Price is a vocal opponent of Sinn Féin and the Peace Process but she is still entitled to due process, Sinn Féin insists.
She was on licence from a life sentence for her part in the IRA bombing of London’s Old Bailey in 1973.
The Secretary of State revoked Price’s licence after the 57-year-old was released on bail after appearing in court on charges relating to an Easter Rising commemoration in Derry City.
Her detention has been described as ‘de facto internment’.
Calling for her release, Sinn Féin’s Raymond McCartney said:
Sinn Féin are on record that Marian Price is entitled to due process and the revoking of her licence is completely unacceptable.
The fact that Marian Price is now being held in Maghaberry Prison for men is also totally unacceptable.
Marian Price is now being held in different circumstances from other female prisoners and this is not conducive to the implementation of a proper justice service.
Sinn Féin are reiterating our demand that Marian Price is entitled to full legal process and should be released immediately on the bail set by the Derry court.
