Protesters take up jailed pensioner’s fight over land access
Ms Treacy, aged 65, of Woodfield House, Clonmore, Tullamore, was jailed for failing to comply with court orders permitting EirGrid and the ESB to run a powerline through her property.
Determined to protect the welfare of forestry on her land, Treacy refused to purge her contempt and was taken to Dóchas Centre at Mountjoy Prison on September 13.
