A Dublin man who a top garda said had been a member of the IRA since he was 15 years old, has been jailed for five years at the Special Criminal Court.

The Special Criminal Court has reserved its judgment in the trial of a 21-year-old Dublin man who denies being a member of the IRA.

A fingerprint expert has told the trial of a Dublin man charged with membership of the IRA that he is happy beyond any doubt that a fingerprint mark left in a van, in which gardaí found a handgun, was made by the accused.

A Detective Chief Superintendent has told the Special Criminal Court he formed the opinion that a Dublin man was a member of the IRA when the accused was approximately 15 years old.

The prosecution in the trial of a man arrested when gardaí found a handgun hidden inside a van in north Dublin in June last year, has claimed he was wearing a tee-shirt with ‘Óglaigh na hÉireann’ written on it at the time.
