Róisín McAliskey

Róisín Elizabeth McAliskey (born 1971) is an Irish political activist. She is the daughter of Irish republican activists Bernadette Devlin McAliskey and Michael McAliskey. She is suspected of having been a member of the Provisional IRA.

She was arrested (while four months pregnant) in 1996 on an extradition warrant issued by Germany accusing her of involvement in the Osnabrück mortar attack against a British Army compound at Osnabrück. On 2 January 1998, a magistrate cleared her extradition to Germany. After a long campaign in which her mother took a leading role by gathering support from influential citizens, including politicians, from Ireland and the United States, British Home Secretary Jack Straw vetoed the extradition on health grounds. She eventually gave birth to a healthy daughter, Loinnir, in England.

On 21 May 2007, she was arrested on a European arrest warrant, again for her alleged involvement in the mortar attack. She was released on bail of £2,500. The extradition bid was denied in November 2007.
