'Not once' - Carlow man denies raping his two neices

A Carlow man accused of sexually abusing his two nieces and their neighbour as children has dismissed the allegations as lies.

The 51-year-old man told his counsel, Mary Rose Gearty SC, that he “not once” and “not in the least” raped or indecently assaulted his nieces, and he “certainly did not” perform a sex act or indecently assault their neighbour.
