Sisters face sentencing over killing

TWO Dublin sisters are to be sentenced today by the Central Criminal Court over their roles in the gruesome killing of their mother’s African boyfriend, whose dismembered and headless body was found in the Royal Canal last year.

Charlotte Mulhall, aged 23, and her older sister Linda, aged 31, will find out this morning their punishment for causing the violent death of 38-year-old Farah Swaleh Noor from Kenya.

At the end of a 10-day trial in October, a jury of six men and six women found Charlotte Mulhall guilty of murdering Mr Noor. Linda Mulhall was earlier found guilty of his manslaughter.
