Collins tells court of beating fear if she complained about threats

A mother-of-three has told the Special Criminal Court that she could not tell her ex-boyfriend about threats made against her life for fear of being beaten up by his brother.

Key prosecution witness April Collins (aged 24) was in her second day of cross-examination in the trial of brothers Wayne Dundon (aged 33) and John Dundon (aged 29), who between them have denied seven counts of making threats to kill and two counts of witness intimidation.
