“These arrests are linked to the human rights abuses being carried out by north Antrim UDA, including range of violent incidents such as multiple shootings and violent assaults.
“We will continue to work with our partners and communities across North Antrim to relentlessly tackle the scourge of criminals who use the threat of violence in an attempt to coercively take control of peoples’ lives. Together we can tackle this.
“I know that communities want to live in peace without the threat of being innocently caught up in the activities of violent criminals. I would encourage anyone with information that could assist in our efforts to contact us on the non-emergency number 101.
