Maskey hits out at Stranmillis Robbery

Published: 6 April, 2006

South Belfast Sinn Fein MLA Alex Maskey has labelled this morning's robbery on a pharmacy on the Stranmillis Road as an attack on the whole community.


Cllr. Maskey MLA said,

" This armed robbery will undoubtedly have caused stress and trauma for the staff who were are the victims in this.


"Pharmacies provide a vital service for the whole community. This robbery, then, is an attack on the community as a whole. Those who would carry out such actions do so without any care for those they may hurt in the process, nor with any regard for the

wider community".
