Well it turns out we where all wrong to have a go at young Mr. Shoukri and the other fifteen loyalists arrested in Tigersbay the other night. Turns out they where getting dressed up in their finest combats in order to announce to the good loyalist people of the area that they where about to bring an end to their “Criminality.” Now call me a skeptic if you will, but as much as I try, and I swear I am trying, I am finding it hard to believe that this is the reason behind Ihab and his mates dressing up like action men the other night. Surely given the fact that a group using a cover name for the UDA tried to kill a catholic the other night would be enough to put the kibosh on this story, but juryless courts in the north are renowned for their gullibility when it comes to dealing with loyalists so you cant blame him for trying. Personally I prefer the Mister Burns, “I was on my way to the orphanage to hand out presents to the children”, defense, would have been a lot more believable Ihab IMHO. What is more, and this is the incredible part, I hear his solicitor managed to deliver these lines in court with a straight face, bravo.
It would have been the most far fetched story on the news so far this week where it not for the Brit police asking the PSNI to help investigate the bank robbery in England because, and I quote, “their successful investigation into the northern bank robbery.” What funny times we live in eh? Sin è.
