Ian Milne (born 1954) is an Irish republican politician. Born in Bellaghy, Milne joined the Official Irish Republican Army-linked Fianna Éireann youth group soon after its formation, but the following year moved to join the Provisional IRA. He was gaoled in 1971, after explosives went off in a car in which he was travelling. He was imprisoned in the Crumlin Road Jail, but escaped in January 1973. The following year, he was arrested in the Republic of Ireland after stealing a Garda car, and was sentenced to five years in Portlaoise Prison. However, he again escaped, and remained an active paramilitary based in Northern Ireland.〔Ella O'Dwyer, "(Interview: Ian Milne - freedom fighter, public representative )", ''An Phoblacht'', 24 August 2006〕 During the mid-1970s, the Royal Ulster Constabulary described Milne as one of its three "most wanted". In 1977, he was arrested and sentenced to life for killing a British soldier. Serving time at Long Kesh, he participated in the blanket protest. He was released in 1992.〔 At the Northern Ireland local elections, 2005, Milne was elected to Magherafelt District Council for Sinn Fein, and he held his seat in 2011.〔"(Magherafelt District Council Elections 1993–2011 )", Northern Ireland Elections〕 While on the council, he spent a period as chairman. In 2013, he was co-opted to the Northern Ireland Assembly in Mid Ulster, replacing Francie Molloy.〔"(SF name Milne as Molloy replacement )", ''Mid Ulster Mail'', 25 March 2013〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ian Milne」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
