Mairia Cahill voiced her concerns after it was revealed that Sean Mag Uidhir and Caolan McGinley resigned from Sinn Féin for providing job references to Michael McMonagle, a former press officer now convicted of serious sexual offenses.
Sinn Féin confirmed that the resignations of Sean Mag Uidhir and Caolan McGinley occurred on the same day as the party's Ard Fheis, highlighting the timing's significance amidst ongoing scrutiny.
Michael McMonagle, who had been arrested in 2021, admitted to serious offenses, including attempting to incite children, raising alarms over his references provided by senior party figures.
Sinn Féin distanced themselves from the references provided for McMonagle, asserting that they were not cleared by the party beforehand, amidst calls for accountability within their ranks.
