A former garda sergeant has told the Disclosures Tribunal he was "physically sick" at the Irish Open golf tournament when he had to be in the same room as a superintendent he accuses of bullying and harassment.

The tribunal is hearing from retired Garda Sergeant Paul Barry, formerly of Mitchelstown Garda Station in Co Cork, who made a protected disclosure that the proper investigation of a child sexual assault allegation was prevented by a superintendent, who he says bullied and harassed him.
