People Before Profit Councillor Shaun Harkin
A councillor on Derry City and Strabane District Council has been charged with taking part in an unnotified parade in relation to the ongoing situation in Gaza.
Shaun Harkin (53) of Beechwood Avenue in Derry was charged with taking part in an unnotified procession on February 14 2024.
The councillor did not appear for the brief hearing but his defence barrister Sinead Rogan said this was a similar charge to five others including Foyle MP Colum Eastwood.
She asked that the case be 'married up' with the other defendants and adjourned until September 2.
All of the defendants are charged with taking part in a pro-Palestinian demonstration that marched from the Diamond to the Guildhall Square.
