Court set to hear appeal against businessman's sexual assault sentence
The Court of Criminal Appeal is due to hear further submissions today in an appeal by the DPP against what it says is the unduly lenient sentence imposed on a businessman for a violent sexual assault.
Anthony Lyons (aged 53) from Griffith Avenue in Dublin received a six-year sentence with five-and-a-half years suspended for attacking a 27-year-old woman on a North Dublin street at night.
