The Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland has condemned an overnight
arson attack on an Orange Hall in Belfast.
Ligoniel Orange Hall has been largely unused since a previous
attack approximately five years ago. Most of the building
was boarded up and the Orange Order are working with the police
to establish the extent of the damage caused during the night.
Members of Orange Order used a small room at the rear of
the building.
A spokesman for the Orange Order said:
"What is clear, is that this is another attack on the
Orange culture. It may well be an attempt to create community
tension and we would urge anyone with information about the
attack to contact the police so they can catch the culprits."
