Two jailed for firearms possession
Two Northern men who admitted having two rifles and ammunition in Dublin in 2003 were jailed by the Special Criminal Court in Dublin today.
Malachy Maguire (aged 40), of John Martin Gardens, Newry, Co Down, and Desmond Mc Cabe (aged 43), of Merchant Court, Newry, pleaded guilty earlier this year to the unlawful possession of two bolt-action .22 inch rifles and 11 rounds of ammunition at Swords Road, Whitehall, Dublin, on September 13, 2003.
