Ms. Teresa Treacy (65) of Woodfield, Clonmore, Tullamore, Co. Offaly, Ireland, was jailed for failing to comply with court orders permitting EirGrid and the ESB to run power line with pylons through her property.
Determined to fight for the welfare of forestry on her land, Ms Treacy refused to purge her contempt and was taken to the Dóchas Centre at Mountjoy Prison on September 13th.
