Kevin Lunney was told to resign from Quinn Industrial Holdings by attackers who threatened to kill him, broke his leg and used a Stanley blade to "score his chest", the Special Criminal Court has heard. The attackers, the court also heard, were acting "on behalf of another or others".

The trial of the four men who deny falsely imprisoning and causing serious harm to Mr Lunney will hear CCTV, DNA, phone location data and other circumstantial evidence from about 250 witnesses, a barrister told the non-jury court this morning.
