Judgement reserved in appeal against abuse conviction
The Court of Criminal Appeal has reserved judgement in the case of a 74-year-old Galway man appealing against his conviction and six-year sentence for sexually abusing two young girls over 40 years ago.
The man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was sentenced to six years imprisonment by Judge Raymond Groarke in February last year, after a Galway Circuit Criminal Court jury found him guilty of one count of buggery and 48 counts of indecent assault.
