Protest as dinner hails IRA dead

VICTIMS campaigners have staged a protest at Londonderry's Guildhall against a 'dinner dance' commemorating dead IRA members. Willie Frazer of victims' group FAIR said that protestors attended the event and held up posters in front of hundreds of people who turned out. "We were demanding justice for victims of terrorism," he said. The victims campaigner said that there were a few verbal exchanges with some of the guests. And he expressed concern that those attending the event were there to glorify the actions of the IRA. "But we will not allow them a free run," he said.
