Court reserves judgement in Cunningham appeal based on search-warrant ruling
The Court of Criminal Appeal has reserved judgement in the case of the only person convicted in relation to the Northern Bank robbery, who has brought the first appeal on the basis of a recent Supreme Court ruling on search warrants issued under a key piece of anti-terrorist legislation.
In April 2009 financier Ted Cunningham (aged 63) was jailed for 10 years by Judge Cornelius Murphy after a jury found him guilty by majority verdicts of laundering more than £3m from the robbery of the Northern Bank in Belfast in December 2004.
