Version 0 of 1.

A man threatened his former wife's mother with a sword as part of a feud between families in County Tyrone, a bail hearing has heard.

A defence lawyer for Michael McGuigan, 20, said the incident stemmed from his client not being part of the Travelling community, unlike his estranged wife.

The accused, of Cloneen, Dungannon, was arrested on Monday at the home of his former wife's mother.

The judge granted bail and ordered him to stay away from his ex-wife's family.
