Clare man avoids jail over possession of first book to be banned here in nearly 20 years
A 43-year-old west Clare man has escaped jail over his possession of a "disgusting" book which was the first book to be banned here by the censors in almost two decades.
At Ennis Circuit Court, Judge Gerald Keys said that a €500 fine and the placing of Clifford Murrihy on the Sex Offenders register were sufficient sanctions to meet the case.
