Brothers' hotel rape convictions quashed
Two Laois brothers who served three-year jail sentences have had their convictions for raping a woman in a Dublin hotel quashed.
Eamonn Flanagan of Dunamaise, Stradbally and Seamus Flanagan of Ashley Gardens, Portlaoise were cleared on appeal after a prosecution witness cast doubt over the evidence he had given at their trial, and claimed he had been bullied by gardaí.
