Enoch Burke's mother Martina Burke and his sister Ammi were removed from the Court of Appeal on Friday by three gardaí after they entered the courtroom and started shouting at barristers and the judge.

Enoch Burke had been making submissions to the court via video-link from Mountjoy Prison when his sister and mother burst into the court. They shouted at counsel for the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (Gsoc), Eoin Lawlor BL, demanding that he leave the court.
