‘Kangaroo court’ accused refuse Kenny invitation

The four people that Maíria Cahill accused of subjecting her to a "kangaroo court" over her claims that she was raped by a IRA member have refused to meet Taoiseach Enda Kenny.

Solicitor for the four people, Peter Madden, advised his clients against a meeting because of what he branded the Taoiseach’s “highly prejudicial” remarks on the case.

The Belfast-based lawyer sent Mr Kenny a letter accusing him of giving inaccurate briefings and ignoring ongoing legal processes.
