The UK Government has imposed sanctions on a native man, Brian Anthony Sheridan, who is suspected of being involved in terrorist activities by facilitating terrorism and associating with members of the New Irish Republican Army (“New IRA”).
Brian Anthony Sheridan (born in Armagh), is further suspected of providing financial services, or assisting others to provide financial support to the New IRA, as well as making available funds and economic resources.
The New Irish Republican Army has launched numerous attacks against the police service of Northern Ireland and the British army. In 2023, the US Department of State designated the New IRA as a terrorist organization.
