A north Belfast woman who was jailed last year for trying to murder police officers has won an appeal against her convictions.
Christine Connor, who was described at her trial as a lone-wolf dissident republican, was sent to prison for 16 years last June.
Judges ruled her guilty pleas were questionable and have ordered a retrial.
Thirty two year old Ms. Connor, who's from north Belfast, was convicted over an alleged terrorist plot in which she posed as a Swedish model to lure men into supporting her attempt to kill.
She will be released on bail pending the fresh hearing.
