In Memory Of Fergal Caraher


Fergal Caraher
Murdered 30th December 1990 by the British Army - Royal Marines

Fergal was killed after being cleared through an Army check point in Cullyhanna, South Armagh on 30/12/90. Members of the Royal Marines opened fire without warning killing Fergal and seriously wounding his brother Michéal. Two soldiers were later charged but acquitted in a Dip lock court. Fergal was 20 years old, married with a 15 month old son, Brendan. Fergal was the 5th eldest in a family of nine.

Fergal was a dedicated republican and hardworking member of Sinn Féin from an honourable Republican family in the town of Cullyhanna, County Armagh.
He will always be remembered in Cullyhanna and across Ireland and by comrades here in Britain for his hard work and unflinching conviction.
One of many cases of murder and injustice in Ireland, yet to be concluded - but we will never give up the search for justice.
