Holohans ‘delighted’ with DPP appeal decision

THE family of Robert Holohan said they were “delighted” yesterday after the Director of Public Prosecution lodged an appeal against the length of the sentence handed down to Wayne O’Donoghue.

The move by the DPP James Hamilton came one hour before the deadline for any appeal to be lodged.

Just after 3pm yesterday, the Courts Service confirmed that it had received an application to review the four-year sentence handed down to O’Donoghue last month by Mr Justice Paul Carney.
