Maguire Seven
Seven Irish victims of a miscarriage of justice. In 1976 Annie Maguire, five members of her family, and a family friend were imprisoned in London for possessing explosives. All seven of the convictions were overturned in June 1991.

In July 1990 he referred it back to the Court of Appeal for quashing.
