LVF warn pirate taxi drivers to steer

LVF warlords, in east Belfast, last night vowed to kill pirate taxi drivers who work for the UVF. Loyalist sources told us LVF leaders have warned a number of men to keep out of Garneville, Knocknagoney and Holywood. The UVF controls a number of illegal taxis in the east of the city.

The threat was issued, after we revealed, last week, how the UVF had vowed to "wipe out" the LVF in their ongoing feud. Sources claim UVF godfathers have told their taxi drivers to ignore the latest LVF threat. Last week's UVF gun attack in the Sydenham area, of east Belfast, is also believed to be in response to the latest LVF threat. Another gun attack in the area was also linked to the feud.

Taxi drivers were caught up in a feud between the LVF and UVF in north Belfast, earlier this year, and many fear similar attacks could be repeated in east Belfast. The UVF has already murdered Jameson Lockhart and Craig McCausland, the 20-year-old whose family say had no paramilitary connections. LVF gunmen have left one man fighting for his life.

As tensions between the two groups continue to rise, there are fears that more lives will be lost over the coming weeks. Said a loyalist source: "The LVF leader in east Belfast has instructed his units to shoot at the UVF's taxi drivers. "These drivers might not be paramilitaries, but that won't stop the LVF targeting them, because they will be trying to get at the UVF.

"The UVF has a number of illegal taxi drivers working for them, and the LVF knows how much money they make from these guys. "Innocent people have been caught up in feuds in the past, and you only have to look at the recent murder of Craig McCausland. "The LVF are desperate to hit back at the UVF, and if they can't get near its leaders, then they will go for anyone with tenuous links to the group."
