The five Mayo men who were jailed for breach of an injunction against their protest over the Corrib gas pipeline have been released from custody.

The President of the High Court has warned them about their future conduct and will decide next month whether they are still to be punished for an illegal protest at the Corrib Gas Development site.

Mr Justice Joseph Finnegan also said he will hear evidence that Shell itself was in breach of court orders by continuing development, despite undertakings not to do so.
