Irish boss of Japan stud sues UL and students

Dr Harry Sweeney — with addresses at Dunshaughlin, Co Meath and Hokkaido, Japan — and Y K Paca Paca Farm, Hokkaido, Japan, are in three cases, suing UL and each of the students over alleged defamation.
The plaintiffs say there is no basis to claims by the students about the behaviour of Dr Sweeney towards them while on placement there between January and March 2014 as part of their UL courses in equine studies.
