SF blames UDA for Belfast pipe bomb attack

03/08/2004 - 12:14:48

Bomb disposal experts in the North have defused a pipe bomb found outside a house in a nationalist area of north Belfast this morning.

A road leading to the Ligoniel area was closed while the device was dealt with.

Local Sinn Féin councillor Eoin O’Broin has blamed the Ulster Defence Association for the incident.

He said nationalists in the area were subjected to a UDA blockade before the loyalist July 12 celebrations.

He added that he wasn’t surprised the intimidation had continued as the PSNI had failed to stop that picket.
