Mum and daughter settle €75k defamation case

Elizabeth Nuga and her daughter Afolashade Nuga, both of Gallagher’s Lane, Glenbrack, Gort, had claimed staff at the Dunnes Stores branch at Briar Hill, Co Galway, had wrongly accused them of taking a €9 bottle of wine from the shop.
They claimed in the Circuit Civil Court that they had been in the store on New Year’s Eve, 2013, and after leaving had been approached by an employee who had asked where was the bottle of wine.
