A protest rally is to be held in Derry today in support of Derry City Council staff who have been threatened by an unnamed dissident republican group.
Eleven of Derry City Council’s Community Safety Wardens were withdrawn from their duties following the threat on Tuesday last.
The threat has been widely condemned and those behind it have been called on to lift it immediately.
Today’s rally will take place at Derry City Council’s offices on Strand Road at 1.00pm.
Alan Law, of the trade union NIPSA, said the event had been organised to show both solidarity with the wardens and disgust at those behind the threat.
