Woman 'lied about child abuse' in divorce case

A High Court judge in Belfast has concluded that a woman involved in a divorce case falsely accused her ex-husband of sexually abusing their children.

In his judgement Mr Justice Weir said the woman's "lurid and extreme" allegations were so incredible and inconsistent that he initially thought she was suffering from some form of paranoid delusion.

However, he concluded that she was merely motivated by spite.
