A Garda in the trial of a County Cork chef accused of IRA membership told the Special Criminal Court he knew another man claimed ownership of the Daz box in which €94,000 was found.

A man told gardaí that he punched a 57-year-old man, whom he is accused of unlawfully killing, after he woke up to find the man "feeling his girlfriend’s tits", when the couple had been sleeping rough in a doorway under a duvet.

A man who was being pursued by 20 Garda patrol cars and a Garda helicopter in a "high-speed car chase", because he was driving a stolen Mercedes for a promised eighth of heroin, has been jailed for two years.
