Cartoonist murder plot: Phone-call accused loses warrant challenge
A man has lost his High Court challenge over a warrant used to search his home during a garda investigation into an alleged conspiracy to murder a Swedish cartoonist who drew a picture of the prophet Mohammed with the body of a dog.
Ali Charaf Damache (aged 45), an Algerian with an address at John Colwyn House, High Street, Waterford, has claimed it was unconstitutional for a senior garda involved in that investigation to issue a warrant to search his home on March 9, 2010.
