A High Court judge has sentenced Enoch Burke’s mother and sister to two weeks in jail each after finding them guilty of contempt of court.
Ammi and Martina Burke were not in court when Mr Justice Brian Cregan delivered his judgment on Wednesday and he ordered gardai to arrest the two women immediately.
The two had been removed from court on February 20 for “shouting and roaring” during a hearing.
Mr Cregan also said the two women, and Mr Burke’s brother Isaac, should be banned from attending future court hearings relating to Enoch Burke in person.
Instead he instructed they be allowed to attend only remotely.
