A Donegal man has been cleared of 51 charges of sexually abusing his daughter over a three-year period.
However, a jury at the Central Criminal Court failed to reach a verdict on a charge of raping his daughter.
The 55-year-old accused denied one charge of rape, 24 charges of oral rape and 27 of indecent and sexual assault on dates from 1994 to 1997, beginning when his daughter was about 12. It is up to the DPP to decide whether to seek a retrial on the rape charge.
