Sinn Féin South Belfast MLA and Policing Board member Alex Maskey has expressed serious concern over a potentially lethal arson attack in Ballynafeigh in South Belfast. Mr Maskey said, "I am extremely concerned at this development. Thankfully no-one was seriously injured or killed. "It is our understanding that there have been a number of incidents in that area in the past few weeks that the PSNI and Housing Executive have been aware of. "I am also concerned that a lack of action on behalf of these bodies means that the situation could spiral out of control further."
