Who is Death of Robert Hamill?
Robert Hamill was an Irish Catholic civilian who was beaten to death by a loyalist mob in Portadown, County Armagh, Northern Ireland. Hamill and his friends were attacked on 27 April 1997 on the town's main street. It has been claimed that the local Royal Ulster Constabulary, parked a short distance away, did nothing to stop the attack. At the time of the murder, tension between loyalists and Irish nationalists was high, mostly due to the ongoing Drumcree parade dispute.
