Sunday December 07, 2008 22:32 by Ian Greene
Legal Team Make Fresh Application to Supreme Court Lawyers acting on behalf of Michael McKevitt have submitted a fresh application to the Supreme Court in Dublin seeking to have a previous Supreme Court judgement overturned and a new appeal initiated. This unprecedented action by McKevitt’s legal team is prompted by the fact that the previous Supreme Court judgement (July 2008) relied greatly on ‘facts’ provided by the prosecution. Subsequently, the Director of Public Prosecutions has acknowledged these to be inaccurate.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4this man should not be in jail. all those who say they are for justice should get behind the campaign to get him out or at least read up on the case, its unbelievable, i was shocked. Its draggin on too long.
I have observed from afar the ever unfolding Intricacies of this case. For too long I have remained silent, believing that the injustice would eventually be righted. It is time to raise our voices in protest. FREE MICHAEL MCKEVITT
Best of luck to Michael and hopefully 2009 will see this man free. What the bastards stole from this man can never be replaced.
FREE MICHAEL MCKEVITT NOW!!!
In a cell in Portlaoise there sits a man,
Mike Mckevitt, unjustly imprisoned;
Condemned through chicanery to serve 20 years-
His accusers to Hell should be summoned.
The head of the PIRA? Indeed, no-one's sure-
But one thing IS known, Rupert's lies won't endure,
Cuz his handlers have made sure he's no longer pure;
But poor Michael's still stuck there in prison.
It was 29 souls Omagh gave up for dead,
While Brit lackeys and spooks they conspired;
But the truth will live on-it's now known and revealed
That those liars will go through the fire.
Mike McKevitt is blameless-the courts nothing proved,
But their lies and deceit, they can stick in their groove;
When they go down to Hell, they'll be trampled by hooves
Of the Devil and all of his minions.
