An appeal brought by convicted killer and rapist Ian Horgan against both his conviction and eight years prison sentence he received for the robbery of a post office will be heard by the Court of Criminal Appeal next week.
Horgan (aged 24), The Hermitage, Macroom, Co Cork, was found guilty by a jury at Cork Circuit Criminal Court in November 2007 of robbing Clondrohid Post Office near Macroom and stealing a car from outside the premises on September 6, 2005. Horgan had denied the charges.
