Statement from Presbyterian Moderator Dr Sam Hutchinson on Poyntzpass murders.
I wish to convey the sympathy of the Presbyterian Church to the families and friends of the two men who died last night in Poyntzpass. It is tragic that two close friends, members of different churches, should die together in this way. This reckless act is a calamity for their relatives and the entire community. This symbolic attack on both communities is to be utterly condemned.
Those operating this totally misguided policy of taking human life for political purposes are considering only their own depraved objectives and must not be allowed to deflect those seeking a fair and reasonable accommodation in the interests of the overwhelming majority of people.
