Nigel Dodds condemned those behind the incident
Sectarian graffiti has been daubed on an Orange hall in north Belfast.

Vandals are understood to have targeted Greencastle Orange hall at some stage on Sunday evening.

Slogans including "CIRA" and "KAH" were written on the walls during the incident.

North Belfast MP Nigel Dodds has condemned the "republican bigots" responsible for the attack.

"This is a repeated and long-running sore. Clearly some criminal elements believe that the hall is an easy target for their sectarian law-breaking.

"To daub the hall in Continuity IRA slogans and racist 'Kill All Huns' graffiti demonstrates that the criminals responsible for this attack are blinded by hatred toward the Protestant community in Greencastle and beyond", he said.

"I would urge anyone with information about this disgraceful attack to come forward to the police.

"There is a special obligation upon those in leadership within the nationalist community to encourage co-operation with the forces of law and order to ensure the criminals responsible for this disgraceful attack are brought before the courts", the DUP MP added.
