One of the two boys convicted of the murder of 14-year-old schoolgirl Ana Kriegel in Dublin seven years ago has been given more time to bring an appeal against his life sentence following a landmark Supreme Court decision.

The youth known as Boy A was sentenced to life with a review after 12 years for murdering the 14-year-old. He was also sentenced to 12 years for an aggravated sexual assault on Ana, which runs alongside the murder sentence.
