Justice For Robert Delany

Robert Delany was the victim of a vicious gun attack on 22nd October 2008 at his home in Tallaght, Dublin where he lived with his partner and two young children. Robert worked as a Postman and was shot at 6.30 a.m. as he looked out the window of his apartment to see who was buzzing on his door.Robert (27) sustained severe brain injuries and remains critically ill in Tallaght Hospital

The Gardaí have stated publicly that Robert was not known to them and was never involved in any criminal activities.

Robert’s family and friends who are devastated as a result of the attack have organised the “Justice for Robert Delany Campaign” , which was launched on Saturday, 31st January 2009 at a public meeting in the Plaza Hotel in Tallaght, which was attended by over 200 people and all of the local public representatives in Tallaght. Following the meeting 10,000 leaflets were distributed in Tallaght appealing to the public to give information to the Gardaí.

One of the most disturbing features of the vicious attack on Robert is the people allegedly responsible are masquerading as Irish Republicans and have used the name of Irish Republicanism to cover themselves. The Delany family have met with Gerry Adams, President of Sinn Féin and Sean Crowe the local Sinn Féin Councillor following which Sinn Féin issued statements and leaflets supporting the “Justice for Robert Delany Campaign”.

Our aim as a family is to get justice for Robert and stop those responsible who are walking the streets from destroying other families

July 2011:

Republican Leaders call on public to help put criminals responsible for shooting Robert Delany behind bars.

The Delany family met Sinn Féin President, Gerry Adams TD and Martin Ferris as part of the Justice for Robert Delany Campaign.  Following the meeting, Gerry Adams stated “The Delany family have the total and absolute support of Republican Leaders and we would call on anyone who has information, which would help put Robert’s attackers behind bars to contact the family and the Gardaí. Members of the public have our full support in coming forward.  Those responsible for the attack are criminals and thugs and they should be locked up.” Martin Ferris TD stated “There should be no confusion about those responsible for the attack on Robert Delany.  They are not Republicans, they are criminals and it is important that such criminals are stood up to and nobody no matter who they are, or whatever their past involvement in the Republican struggle, can use the Republican cause as a cloak for criminal activity.  If they attempt to do so they will be repudiated and should face the full riggers of the law.”

Terry Delany welcomed the clear and unequivocal statements from Gerry Adams and Martin Ferris.
