Sinn Fein MP John Finucane is suing a DUP councillor over Twitter allegations, denied by him, of supporting and promoting the IRA
.
Proceedings relate to a tweet published in November 2019 amid media coverage of banners which attacked and made allegations about the Sinn Fein representative and members of his family. In June last year the DUP politician was suspended from Mid and East Antrim Borough Council for eight months after a watchdog standards investigation found he had breached the code of conduct. He now faces a High Court lawsuit seeking damages over the contents of the tweet.
At a previous hearing a judge allowed an added meaning which introduced Mr Finucane’s membership of Sinn Fein as part of an amended defence to the action.
