A Co Donegal man who had booked a family holiday in Spain the day he was arrested for IRA membership was told by the Special Criminal Court in Dublin yesterday that he could not travel on the trip.
The court heard that Philip McGavigan had paid €3,148 for the two-week holiday for nine family members in Spain for two weeks in June. He booked the holiday just hours before his arrest on February 2nd.
Mr McGavigan (49), Coney Burrow, Lifford, was charged with membership of the IRA.
