A former member of the Defence Forces who sexually assaulted two army colleagues at an overseas military base three years ago has been given suspended six-month sentences by a military court.

However, former sergeant, Richard Muldarry, aged 44, from Mullingar, Co Westmeath, was sentenced to five days detention in the Curragh Camp for disorderly behaviour as a result of being drunk contrary to Section 142 of the Defence Act 1954 on the same occasion.
