Couple in $101 million compo bid for jailing

AN Irish couple who were falsely linked with Middle East terrorists and jailed in the US have filed a $101m lawsuit.

Lawyers acting for James Murray and Ruth Gould lodged the suit with a New York court within the last week.

The couple allege a company that brought them to the US "under the promise of a glimpse of the American dream, instead delivered them into a nightmare".
