Willie Corduff was remains in hospital after being badly beaten last night

Willie Corduff, one of the Rossport 5 and Goldman prize winner, was badly beaten by men in balaclavas and dark clothes at approximatly 4 o clock in the monrning last night.

Willie was under a Shell Truck as part of a protest which was blocading Shell from trying to resume its work in Glengad yesterday. Willie had orginally been joined by two other locals, both of whom were removed.

Willie had vowed to stay under the truck, and remained there throughout the night. Locals kept a vigil beside him. At approximately four inthe morning, when the vigil was at its lowest, men came dressed in dark clothes and wearing balaclavas.

They beat Willie badly. He is currently being kept in Mayo General Hospital after having a number of x-rays done.

Hopefully someone with more information can update this story.

Time to get all our asses to Erris!
