Man jailed for a year for sexually abusing nephews

A 63-year-old man who rejected the jury’s verdict of guilty against him, for sexually assaulting two nephews in the 1990s, was jailed for one year yesterday.

He cannot be named for legal reasons.

Judge Seán Ó Donnabháin imposed a two-year sentence, with half of it suspended, on the man at Cork Circuit Criminal Court yesterday.
