Taoiseach to name date for discussion of issues raised in Maíria Cahill case
Politicians are waiting for a date to discuss the Maíria Cahill abuse allegations, after the Taoiseach confirmed yesterday that the Dáil would set aside time to debate the issues raised by her experiences.
Mairia Cahill claims that a leading Republican raped her in 1997 when she was 16. She says Sinn Féin knew about her rape, covered it up and held its own inquiry into the case which brought her face-to-face with her alleged attacker.
