Prosecution questions validity of evidence in Louth explosives trial

The trial of two Louth men accused of possessing explosive substances has heard evidence in a “trial within a trial” after both challenged the validity of search warrants issued in the lead up to their arrest.

Conan Murphy (aged 25), with an address at Plaster, Mount Pleasant, Dundalk, Co Louth, has pleaded not guilty to the possession of explosive substances at Aghaboys, Mount Pleasant on May 22, 2010.
