An apology was also read out at the High Court in Belfast.
Eurovision Song Contest winner Dana Rosemary Scallon is to receive a “six-figure sum” in libel damages over false newspaper allegations about her brother’s criminal trial.
Ms Scallon’s barrister, Peter Girvan, confirmed: “The parties have reached a settlement which involves the payment of an agreed, undisclosed six-figure sum, together with costs.”It stated: “On July 10 2014 the headline of a report of the opening speech by the prosecution in proceedings for sexual offences against John Brown, the brother of the politician and recording artist Dana Rosemary Scallon, may have suggested that the accused was guilty of the charges and Dana knew of his offences.
She also twice stood unsuccessfully as an independent candidate in the Republic's presidential elections. “Serious, false allegations were also made in court reporting when I stood up for my brother in his battle to defend himself against the outrageous allegations made against him.Her lawyers also pointed out that Mr Brown has also received undisclosed sums in his own libel actions.
