BREAKING Enoch Burke loses appeal amid chaotic courtroom scenes as gardai make arrest
There were violent and chaotic scenes at the Court of Appeal today during the dismissal of Enoch Burke's application to set aside orders directing him to stay away from Wilson Hospital's school following his paid suspension from his teaching post.
However, the Burke family then refused to comply with a direction to vacate the courtroom by members of An Garda Siochana. After several warnings were not complied with the Gardai attempted to physically remove the Burkes from the court. This resulted in violent and angry scenes before the Burkes were taken outside by the dozen or so Garda present in the environs of the courtroom.
His failure to stay away from the school, currently on mid-term break, following his release resulted in the High Court imposing a daily €700 fine until he purges his ongoing contempt.
