DPP fails to have sentences increased
The Director of Public Prosecutions failed today in his bid to have prison sentences increased on two men, including a man being sued in connection with the 1998 Omagh bomb, who were jailed after gardaí discovered a major bomb making operation near the border.
The DPP lost his appeal against the 10-year sentence imposed on Joe Fee and the six-year sentence given to Seamus McKenna, who is one of five men being sued by some of the relatives of the victims of the Omagh bomb in a £14m (€20.46m) lawsuit.
