This is the latest info press release on the recent detentions of republican socialist activists. You can express your solidarity by writting letters of sending post cards to the prisoners themselves. You can also send much needed money to support the Prisoners' Dependents.

IRSCNA Statment of Recent Internement IRSP Members:

Five IRSP and Teach Na Fáilte (ex-POW community workers) members have been recently interned by the Irish government and subjected to extreme brutality by the Special Branch police. Two have sustained injuries requiring hospitalization. One of the men seriously injured is wheel chair-bound. We desperately need everyone to speak out against this unprovoked violence so that it cannot be repeated.

The RSPOWs in Portlaoise Prison appreciate the outpouring of support and concern from all over the world. But concrete help is needed. These new prisoners are joining three other recently arrested and imprisoned members, and support funds are quite low. Please send any funds you can spare to aid these prisoners of conscience, as well as cards and letters which are greatly appreciated.

Send funds to support the Prisoners’ Dependents to:
