Three accused of identifying boys who murdered Ana Kriegel get further appeal

The three people are accused of posting photos of the two boys on social media

Ana Kriegel was murdered at a disused farmhouse in Lucan, Co Dublin, in May 2018, by two boys when they were both 13 years old.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal by three people facing trial for allegedly breaching publication restrictions during the trial of the murder of teenager Ana Kriegel.

The three were among 10 charged with breaches under the Children Act 2001 which provides that no one could legally identify the two boys who were convicted of the girl’s murder.
