The 58-year-old, from Bernagh Drive in Belfast, had denied all 10 charges – three of rape, three of gross indecency and four of indecent assault.

The offences were alleged to have occurred between March 1977 and March 1983 when his daughter Aine was aged between four and nine years old.

During a recorded interview, Aine Adams – who has waived her right to anonymity – told a detective that her mother and Uncle Gerry had confronted her father but he denied any wrongdoing.
