Former election candidate attempts citizen arrest on High Court judge, solicitor and barrister

An attempt was made by a lay litigant to arrest a High Court judge, a solicitor and a barrister at the Four Courts.

Stephen Manning, a candidate in the 2016 general election, asked Mr Justice Michael MacGrath, as well as a solicitor for the DPP and a barrister to accompany him to a Garda Station, where he could effect a citizen's arrest.
