New date for Buncrana garda station protest over death of Rebecca Browne
Rebecca Browne from Derry city died on May 21 last year after being struck by a garda vehicle while returning to her accommodation at Ludden after a night out in Buncrana
A protest planned at Buncrana garda station next month following the decision not to prosecute gardaí over the death of a 21-year-old woman who died after being struck by a garda vehicle has been postponed for a week.
Rebecca Browne from Derry city died on May 21 last year while returning to her accommodation at Ludden after a night out in Buncrana.
It emerged last month that the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) decided not to direct a prosecution in the case following an investigation by the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (Gsoc).
A protest in December organised by Ms Browne’s family at Ludden, close to the scene of the fatal collision, heard calls for “answers, accountability and justice”.
The Justice for Rebecca Browne campaign has announced that the second protest will now take place on Sunday, February 9 at 1pm outside Buncrana garda station.
