A jury in the Central Criminal Court has found a 25-year-old man not guilty of raping and sexually assaulting a woman at a housewarming party.
Mr Justice Carney discharged the man, who had denied committing the offences on June 7th last year.
After the verdict the man broke down crying with relief. He embraced his legal team, relatives and friends. Mr Justice Carney discharged the jury from duty for the next 10 years.
