This one is a bit bizarre. The main evidence presented against several men accused of INLA membership seems to be possession of tights and stockings with intent (knives were found nearby)
She said the court would hear that Mr Dunne and Mr Kelleher were arrested in premises in Cork and Mr Dunne was found with a pair of tights while Mr Kelleher had a nylon stocking, a pair of gloves and a black refuse sack.
A coalshed was also searched and a black-handled knife, duct tape, cable ties and two other black-handled knives were found.
I should also note they were ‘seen at meetings’
Meetings, women’s hosiery and proximity to outbuildings……cast iron
