Kelly condemns 'dissident threat'

Gerry Kelly called for dissident republicans to drop their threat

Dissident republicans have issued threats to a number of north Belfast community groups because they worked with the police, Sinn Féin has claimed.

Assembly member Gerry Kelly said the groups had held "multi-agency meetings to address pressing issues".

"To have these threats made against them while they are working hard to improve people's quality of life is contemptible," he said.

Police said they never commented on the security of individuals.
