Mid Ulster MP Cathal Mallaghan calls for a fully independent public inquiry into killing of Bellaghy GAA official
Sinn Féin MP Cathal Mallaghan has said the only viable, human rights-compliant way to achieve truth and justice for the family of Sean Brown is through a fully independent public inquiry.
The Mid-Ulster MP was speaking after a meeting with the Ancient Order of Hibernians delegation from across the United States and the family of Sean Brown.
“We urged them to write and speak to their Members of Congress and Senators to use their influence to put pressure on the British government to do the right thing and allow the truth about Sean Brown’s killing to be told,” he said.
“When Bridie Brown next attends the court it will be her sixtieth time, it is beyond time the British government ended its cruel campaign of delay and denial, which shows a shocking level of contempt and disrespect for the Brown family.
“The courts have been clear; the only viable, human rights-compliant way to achieve truth and justice is through a fully independent public inquiry.”
