The Indo Daily

Two people who swore affidavits connected to Conor McGregor’s appeal in the Nikita Hand civil rape case have now been charged with perjury.
Samantha O’Reilly and Steven Cummins had provided evidence that McGregor’s legal team initially intended to rely upon as part of his appeal, before that evidence was dramatically withdrawn.
The development brings a fresh legal twist to a case that has already attracted international attention. In today's Indo Daily, Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Irish Independent security correspondent Robin Schiller to explain who the couple are, what they are accused of and what happens next.

Christy Kinahan Sr is on the move after being issued a tight deadline to leave the United Arab Emirates.

With Daniel Kinahan due back in court next week, is the Kinahan cartel collapsing in real time, or are rumours of its demise greatly exaggerated?
On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Katie Byrne is joined by Bellingcat researcher Connor Plunkett and Irish Independent security correspondent Robin Schiller to discuss the departure of the ‘Dapper Don’.

There is a stalemate in Portadown and deep division in Stormont. On the Orange side, the issue is the rights of a small number of people to march their traditional route – backed by a legal ruling. On the Garvaghy Road, a community feels that march is sectarian harassment - and a relic of another age.

This extra episode of The Indo Daily is brought to you by our colleagues at The BelTel as Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Sam McBride and Allison Morris and hears from Claire Dickson in Portadown, and from Andrew Madden in Stormont.

Twenty-five years ago, Sunday World journalist Martin O’Hagan was shot dead as he walked home with his wife in Lurgan, Co Armagh.
A fearless investigative reporter who exposed the criminal underworld behind Northern Ireland’s paramilitaries, O’Hagan had made dangerous enemies on both sides, but no one has ever been convicted of his murder.
Joining Fionnán Sheehan on the Indo Daily is Sunday World Northern editor Richard Sullivan and Irish Independent special correspondent Paul Williams, as they remember their friend and colleague and examine why, 25 years on, his killing remains unsolved.

Todays episode of The Indo Daily is brought to you by our sister podcast, The BelTel. Johnny Adair, commonly referred to as ‘Mad dog Adair’, was one the most well-known terror bosses of the Troubles.

Who is Mad dog Adair, what does he believe, and how does he view his murderous reign? Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Aaron Edwards, a Senior Lecturer in Defence and International Affairs at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and author of ‘Enemies within: The explosive true story of Johnny ‘Mad dog’ Adair’.
