In 1978 he was convicted of causing an explosion and sentenced to 15 years.[3] Sheehan was the 17th republican inmate at the Maze Prison to join the 1981 hunger strikes, which was aimed at gaining political status for Provisional IRA and Irish National Liberation Army prisoners. He began fasting on 10 August - after nine prisoners had already starved themselves to death - and ended when the hunger strike was officially called off on 3 October. He survived 55 days without food. By the time Sheehan began fasting, the strike had already begun to break. Another protester, Paddy Quinn, was taken off the hunger strike on 31 July after his mother called for medical intervention when her son was close to death following 47 days without food. This action - and calls by the Catholic Church to end the strike - prompted other relatives to do the same. The last prisoner to die was Michael Devine, who starved to death on 20 August after 60 days. The hunger strike was ultimately called off after it had become clear that nearly all the prisoners' families would intervene to stop their sons from dying. He was released in 1987, but was convicted again in 1989 for more bombing offences and sentenced to 24 years.[4] He was released under the terms of the 1998 Belfast Agreement On 3 October 2006, Sheehan marked the 25th anniversary of the end of the hunger strike by reading the prisoners' statement that ended the protest outside the gates of the now closed Maze Prison. Political careerOn 7 December 2010, he succeeded Gerry Adams as MLA for Belfast West, Adams having resigned in order to contest the Irish general election, 2011. Sheehan retained the seat for Sinn Féin at the 2011 Assembly election. Sheehan has provoked anger and controversy by describing the Troubles as "probably quite civilised" and saying the IRA "could have left a 1,000lb car bomb on the Shankill" if it wanted to kill Protestants.[5] As at August 2015, he is a Political Member of the Northern Ireland Policing Board.[6] Personal lifePat Sheehan is the widower of Sinn Féin activist Siobhán O'Hanlon who died from cancer in 2006. He has a son.[7] Pat is also a keen cricket fan.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://aims.niassembly.gov.uk/mlas/details.aspx?&aff=2456&per=281&sel=1&ind=17&prv=0|title=MLA Details: Mr Pat Sheehan|work=niassembly.gov.uk}} {{S-start}}{{s-par|ni/ass}}{{s-bef | before = Gerry Adams }}{{s-ttl2. ^{{cite news|title=Pat Sheehan picked to succeed Gerry Adams at Stormont|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-11760634|accessdate=27 June 2012|newspaper=BBC|date=16 November 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.newsletter.co.uk/news/regional/sinn-fein-members-with-ira-links-1-2738798|title=Sinn Fein members with IRA links|work=newsletter.co.uk}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/politics/pat-sheehan-im-humbled-to-be-following-gerry-adams-28571539.html|title=Pat Sheehan: I’m humbled to be following Gerry Adams|work=BelfastTelegraph.co.uk}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=The Belfast Telegraph - Pat Sheehan’s IRA comments spark outrage|url=http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/northern-ireland/pat-sheehanrsquos-ira-comments-spark-outrage-15045207.html|work=The Belfast Telegraph|publisher=The Belfast Telegraph|accessdate=29 August 2012}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nipolicingboard.org.uk/index/theboard.htm|title=The Board|publisher=|accessdate=22 August 2015|}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Pat Sheehan MLA|url=http://www.westbelfastsinnfein.com/representatives/18094|publisher=Sinn Féin|accessdate=27 June 2012|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131017095314/http://www.westbelfastsinnfein.com/representatives/18094|archivedate=17 October 2013|df=dmy-all}} 8. ^{{cite news| url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-11776053 | work=BBC News | title=Profile of new Sinn Fein MLA Pat Sheehan | date=17 November 2010}} | title = MLA for Belfast West | years = 2010–present }}{{s-inc}}{{S-end}}{{1981 Hunger Strike}}{{PIRA}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Sheehan, Pat}} 12 : 1958 births|Irish republicans|Living people|Northern Ireland MLAs 2007–11|Northern Ireland MLAs 2011–16|Northern Ireland MLAs 2016–17|Northern Ireland MLAs 2017–|People educated at St Malachy's College|People from Belfast|Provisional Irish Republican Army members|Republicans imprisoned during the Northern Ireland conflict|Sinn Féin MLAs |
