O'Riordan cleared of false imprisonment charge

While awarding her damages of €1,500 for the loss of personal belongings, Justice Quirke ruled that Fahy had not proved the other, more serious charges. Of breach of contract and false imprisonment. He also said that "however unpalatable it is", she'll have to pay O'Riordan and Burton's which are estimated at €150,000.

Speaking afterwards to reporters, Fahy said she had no idea how she could raise that sort of money.
