Chair of city PSNI watchdog condemns threats to graffiti erasers
Londonderry Policing and Community Safety Partnership Chairman Thomas Conway stated: “This issue was discussed at today’s PCSP meeting and members expressed their concern both at the threats issued against the workers and the subsequent criminal damage caused to company vehicles. Members were unanimous in their condemnation of these actions.
“The removal of slogans from the city walls is supported by statutory agencies and community representatives alike and the threat issued against these employees is totally unacceptable.

The graffiti in question expressed sympathy at the death of Belfast republican Dolours Price and antagonism towards UK City of Culture 2013.
