Arrests of loyalists with Northern Bank notes ignored

category national | crime and justice | news report author Tuesday January 11, 2005 19:22author by Séamus Ó Cadhain Report this post to the editors

The arrest today of loyalists possessing £47,000 in Northern Bank £100 bank notes has been largely ignored in the mainstream media. This is despite the furore over allegations which originally linked the IRA to the mammoth robbery in Belfast over Christmas.

Two men, who were arrested following the confiscation of £42,000 in Northern Bank notes, have now been released on bail as police investigations continue.

On RTÉ and TV3 news this evening, the story hasn't featured, despite the considerable coverage of unfounded allegations against the IRA in recent weeks.

The arrests followed attempts to purchase small items, including magazines, using £100 notes at the Rushmere Shopping Centre in Craigavon, Co Armagh, on Sunday.

The money was recovered during searches of two houses and business premises in Banbridge, Co Down, yesterday.
