Anti Imperialist Action Ireland condemns the move by the Free State to arrest Martin McCauley at the behest of British Imperialism.
The Extradition of Irish Republicans is wrong and must be opposed by all Republicans.
Tonight Martin finds himself in a prison cell, because the British Forces of Occupation want to interrogate him about an IRA operation in Lurgan in 1982.
That operation was carried out by Óglaigh na h-Éireann as it pursued the war for National Liberation in Ireland and was not a criminal act.
Martin McCauley is the latest Republican to find himself facing extradition as Britain continues to wage its war against Irish Republicans.
Sean Walsh from Cork has been held in Portlaoise Prison for over 3 years as he fights an MI5 driven extradition. Jim Donegan, Seamus Kane and John McNicholl are also fighting extradition in the Free State courts.
No is the time for all Republicans, regardless of group or affiliation, to stand together to resist the extradition of ALL Irish Republicans!
