The 32CSM wishes to draw attention to the latest
alarming deterioration in the health of Marian Price. Marian, who
suffers from arthritis and who has been kept in isolation for over a
year has now been diagnosed with pneumonia. The prison doctors at
Hydebank jail attributed the decline in Marian's health to her continued
incarceration and warned that this would continue whilst she remained
in the conditions that she was in. Despite this the British government
have chosen to keep Marian interned.
Let there be no doubt from any
quarter Marian Price is being interned and tortured. There is no legal
basis to her detention, no moral defence of it and to all those who have to
this point refused to speak out against this, there is no excuse for your
continued silence.
Marian Price is one of many Republicans currently being imprisoned
with no regard for legal or judicial norms. Martin Corey, Gerry McGeough
and most recently Alan Lundy have all had their rights stripped from
them. This is British justice in Ireland and this is the treatment all
Republicans can expect to receive at the hands of Owen Patterson. The
32CSM is calling on all Republicans to further their efforts on behalf
of Marian, she is being used as a political hostage and the British
government intend to make an example out of her.
End internment and Free
Marian Price.
