- Gerry Adams received 100,000 euro (£84,000) in defamation damages from the BBC.
- The payment followed a High Court ruling in Dublin earlier this year, where a jury found in his favour.
- The case stemmed from a 2016 BBC Spotlight programme and online article that alleged Mr Adams sanctioned the killing of Denis Donaldson.
- Mr Adams consistently denied any involvement in the killing.
- He has stated his intention to donate the awarded damages to various "good causes," including Unicef for Gaza, local GAA organisations, and mental health projects.
