Liam Adams, a brother of Sinn Féin's Gerry Adams, has been jailed for 16 years for raping and abusing his daughter.

He will spend a further two years on probation.

Adams, 58, from Bernagh Drive, Belfast, was convicted of 10 offences in October, including rape and gross indecency, against his daughter, Áine, who waived her right to anonymity.

The judge described the abuse as the "greatest imaginable breach of trust".

She said the evidence clearly established that Adams "used this child for his own sexual gratification, whenever he had the opportunity", particularly when he was angry or drunk.

The abuse was committed over a six-year period between 1977 and 1983 when his daughter was aged between four and nine.

Liam Adams consistently denied the charges throughout a two-week trial.

However, a jury of nine men and three women convicted Adams on all charges, following four hours of deliberation, with a majority verdict of eleven to one.

This was his second trial. The first trial collapsed in April for legal reasons.
