A Ballincollig man who got suspended jail terms twice in the past for drug-dealing was not as lucky when he was caught for the third time.

Judge Seán Ó Donnabháin has sentenced 38-year-old Alan O’Dwyer of 144 Castlepark, Ballincollig, County Cork, to 18 months in prison at Cork Circuit Criminal Court.
