Gardai arrest woman (30s) over online threats made to Simon Harris and his family




A woman, aged in her 30s has been arrested over what’s described as online threats against the Tánaiste Simon Harris and his family.

The woman is currently being detained at a garda station in the Dublin region.

According to RTE, in a statement, Mr Harris said: “There can be no hiding place for anyone seeking to threaten, attack or harm people or to incite others to do so.”

“Politicians have become a regular target and it is on the brink of being viewed as acceptable or a normal part of the job. It is not acceptable,” he said.

“Constant efforts to target us, demean us or dehumanise us should never be accepted, never be normalised and always called out,” Mr Harris said.
