Craigavon Two

Craigavon Two – Protest

,

There will be a “Justice For The Craigavon Two” protest and leaflet drop at the Donald Dewar statue, Buchanan Street, Glasgow on Saturday 14 July 2018, from 2.00 pm to 3.00 pm.

Meantime, we publish below a letter from the Craigavon Two, Brendan McConville and John Paul Wootton:

 

“Following what we can only describe as the politically expedient and unjustifiable dismissal of our appeal against our wrongful convictions, we would like to take this opportunity to once again state publicly that we (Brendan McConville and John Paul Wootton ) had no part or role whatsoever in any activity connected in any way to death of Stephen Carroll.

While the blatant biased decision of the Court of Appeal, was deeply disappointing for not only ourselves and our families, but also the numerous organisations and individuals who have continually found the strength and courage to stand firm against this injustice, we regrettably concede that our experience of this seriously flawed system has led us to conclude that our only realistic hope for achieving justice, lies with you the public and your continued support, both at an individual level.”

 

Please sign and share THIS PETITION and help John Paul and Brendan get back home to their families where they belong.   Thank you.
