They are alleged to have assaulted the McGlincheys' father during a ‘melee’. The McGlincheys' dad was taken to hospital with a head injury, the court heard.
The police officer told the court it is believed the two McGlincheys and their father approached a house in Limavady following an earlier incident when Stephen McGlinchey was assaulted.
The officer said it is the police case the McGlincheys had gone to the property seeking ‘revenge’.
