No justification for threats to elected representatives – Lunn

Alliance Policing board member, Trevor Lunn MLA, has condemned those behind a threat which was made to North Antrim MLA, Daithi McKay, in which he was warned that a bomb had been left at his house. The Police carried out a search but found nothing.

Trevor Lunn MLA said: “There can be no justification for making threats against elected representatives. Every person in our society, including politicians, should be free to go about their business without having to worry about such threats or intimidation.

“I would like to pass on my thoughts to Daithi and his family, and hope that this won’t deter him.

“If anybody has any information about this threat then I would urge them to contact the Police or Crimestoppers.”
