Prosecutors appeal 'unduly lenient' sentence imposed on burglar used as 'muscle' in Dublin assault

A violent burglar used as “muscle” to intimidate another man must wait to hear whether his sentence will be increased, on foot of an appeal by prosecutors.

Donal O’Hara (aged 26), of Glin Park, Coolock, Dublin 17, pleaded guilty at the Special Criminal Court to assaulting John Roche, causing him harm, at The Towers, Garter Lane, Saggart, County Dublin on June 9, 2015.
