'Time for Truth' rallies take place in Belfast, Dublin and Derry/Londonderry over government's "amnesty" proposals

By Q Radio news

Bereaved relatives have organised a Time for Truth day of action to protest against the UK Government’s plan to ban future legacy prosecutions. 

The proposed government amnesty would prevent prosecutions for Northern Ireland conflict-related offences.

Protests were organised at several venues north and south of the border.

Supporters will gather outside the High Court in Belfast as well as in Derry/Londonderry and Dublin.

The organisers say the proposed British Government’s amnesty would prevent prosecutions for conflict-related offences and close down present and future police and Police Ombudsman investigations, civil actions and legacy inquests.

“The families of the Time for Truth Campaign are mobilizing against Britain’s insidious and perfidious proposals which would have embarrassed Chile’s Pinochet dictatorship.”
