Alan Ryan Commemoration March Planned

Republicans are allegedly planning to mark the one year anniversary of the murdered Real IRA chief Alan Ryan.

It is understood that a "huge" commemoration is being planned by dissident leaders from the 32-County Sovereignty Movement, according to the Irish Mirror.

It is claimed that thousands are expected to attend Ryan North Dublin home next month, where a procession is expected to march to his grave site.

A large garda presence is also expected at any potential march.
