GUE/NGL deplores and condemns the killing of Robert McCartney and asks for justice to be done. We express our condolences and stress that the McCartney family deserve the fullest support in their pursuit of justice.
GUE/NGL calls on those responsible to come forward and take responsibility for their actions and calls on those who witnessed any of the events surrounding the killing to come forward and provide information to the police or in any other form that will assist the prosecution of Robert McCartney's killers in a court of law.
Respecting what the sisters of Robert McCartney underlined when they visited the European Parliament on 6 April, that this murder had no political background, but was a criminal act which should be prosecuted and those responsible brought to justice, GUE/NGL made every attempt to agree a common resolution with the other political groups. We very much regret that they were not willing to compromise, preferring to use the resolution to focus on the political situation in the North of Ireland.
GUE/NGL will be happy to deal with this issue in the European Parliament, but today’s voted resolution is not the correct way to do it. We therefore abstained in the final vote, and our position is made very clear in our own groups proposed resolution."@en1
