Former Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams has won a defamation case against the BBC.
Mr Adams claimed he was defamed in a 2016 Spotlight programme and a subsequent online article, which he said falsely claimed that he sanctioned the killing of former senior Sinn Féin official Denis Donaldson.
The jury awarded Mr Adams €100,000 in damages.
Speaking outside court, Mr Adams said that he was always satisfied with his reputation and that the "jury made the decision and let's accept the outcome".
"From my perspective, taking this case was about putting manners on the British Broadcasting Corporation," he said.
Following the verdict, BBC Spotlight reporter Jennifer O'Leary said that she had nothing to hide and only sources to protect.
