“The Fact Finding Delegation is interested in gathering evidence from all parties in County Mayo about the situation around the Shell refinery and pipeline project in order to determine why violence has recently erupted, among other things,” said Denny Larson of the International Human Rights group, Global Community Monitor.  “We have requested interviews with the Police and Government officials as well as scheduled a public hearing to
gather information from the residents.”
