An Irish priest based in London has been found not guilty of an indecent act with a child.

Fr Neil Horan, who is 57 and originally from Scartaglin in Co Kerry, was found not guilty after a two-and-a-half day trial at the Old Bailey.

Earlier this year, Fr Horan received a suspended sentence from a Greek court after he disrupted the Olympic marathon.
