THE PSNI say a number of searches have been carried in Derry today as part of an ongoing investigation into the activities of the New IRA.

Crime Operations Assistant Chief Constable Barbara Gray said in a statement this afternoon: “Detectives from the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Terrorism Investigation Unit have today searched properties at four locations in Derry, Belfast, Dungannon and Newry in connection with an ongoing investigation into the activities of the New IRA.

“The properties were searched under TACT legislation as part of Operation Arbacia, a community safety operation.”

Nine people – seven men and two women – were arrested in Derry, east Tyrone and Belfast on Tuesday as part of Operation Arbacia.

Police were last night granted a further three days to question the suspects at the serious crime custody suite in Belfast.

Operation Arbracia was a covert surveillance operation carried out by MI5 at the request of the PSNI’s Terrorist Investigation Unit into the activities of the New IRA in the North West and across the North of Ireland.
