Adams arrest a deliberate attempt to influence outcome of elections. Hardly news.



Adams arrest a deliberate attempt to influence outcome of elections, says McGuinness

DEPUTY First Minister Martin McGuinness has said that "dark forces" within the PSNI are behind the timing of Gerry Adams' arrest.

Speaking to reporters at the Assembly, the Sinn Féin MLA said Gerry Adams has been the single most important person in building peace in Ireland.

“I view his arrest as a deliberate attempt to influence the outcome of the elections due to take place all over this island in three weeks," he said.

The Mid-Ulster representative added that the allegations against Gerry Adams in relation to the death of Jean McConville have come from elements within society who are hostile to the Peace Process and wish to see it collapse.

Martin McGuinness also added that he has every confidence that Gerry Adams will continue to lead Sinn Féin through the upcoming election campaign.
