On Thur 3rd May 2007 at Westport District Court, I successfully applied for summonses and initiated prosecutions against 3 members of An Garda Síochána, Belmullet, Co Mayo, who were then summonsed to appear to answer charges of assault, criminal damage and theft at Belmullet District Court on 13th June. On Wed 13th June 2007 at Belmullet District Court, I failed to bring the case to a full hearing, because of a number of avoidable mistakes that I made, one of which proved to my undoing, whereby the judge put a stop to me proceeding any further with these summonses. This article is an account of my days in court, including the procedures I went through to initiate the prosecutions and the mistakes I made in failing, at this stage, to bring the proceedings to the proper conclusion of a trial. I hope others can learn from my experience, avoid the pitfalls, and be encouraged to bring their own prosecutions against criminal Gardaí, in order to stop their violence and the cowardly abuse of their power. read full story / add a comment

Two interesting pieces in the Irish Times yesterday, one an article by Lorna Siggins, the other a letter correcting the rather peculiar editorial last week, which likened the dispute in Mayo to an Ealing Comedy film. Many people inside and outside the campaign are keeping a close eye on Eamon Ryan, and wondering whether he will meet with the Shell to Sea campaign before he meets with Shell. Ryan has a supporter of Shell to Sea for a long time, and now he finds himself in charge of the project to get gas from the Corrib Field. It will be interesting to see what his reaction will be when the Gardaí use brutal tactics and start arresting protesters against Shell in Erris and in other parts of the country. The 29th of June is the second anniversary of the imprisonment of the Rossport Five. Perhaps the new minister will mark the occasion by making a statement on the current situation. read full story / add a comment |
