Dissident republican 'death threat' to woman journalist 10 June 2013 Last updated at 11:34 Dissident republicans have issued a death threat against a woman journalist in Northern Ireland, according to a union. The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) said the PSNI had informed the journalist about the threat. The union called for it to be withdrawn. The PSNI said it did not discuss individuals's security but if it got information that a person's life may be at risk it would inform that person. The NUJ said it was concerned about the "growing number of threats being made by paramilitary groups in Northern Ireland against journalists who are carrying out their work" "We call on those responsible for the latest threat to lift it and to publicly say so," said the spokesman.
