Wharrie decision is reserved by court

Perrie Wharrie was convicted for €440m cocaine importation.
A FIVE-JUDGE Supreme Court has reserved its decision over an appeal by the DPP against a decision to cut a 30-year jail sentence on a man for his role in a bungled attempt to bring in a record €440 million drugs consignment off the Cork coast nearly 10 years ago.
Perry Wharrie, aged 56, Loughton, Essex, England, had his 30-year sentence reduced on appeal to an effective 17-and-a-half years over the cocaine haul at Dunlough Bay on the Mizen peninsula on July 2, 2007.
