Shannon District Court today threw out charges against four anti-war protestors who were arrested following a peace demonstration at Shannon Airport last September.

Niall Harnett of Dublin and Liscannor, and Conor Cregan of Cronin Lawns, Shannon had charges of failing to obey airport police officers withdrawn by the state.

The two had gained access to a balcony in the main airport terminal to display anti-war banners on September 17 last.

Another two protesters, Margaret Liddy and St. John O'Donnabhain had charges of failing to provide names and addresses to Shannon Airport Police withdrawn.
