    Hey, wasn't sure where to add this question... Are there any records online available in 1940's, i found out my grandfather went to prison and want to find out the length of time he served. Thanks.

    There's nothing after independence online. I suspect the 1940s would be covered under data protection, but you could try an FOI request if you can also supply a death cert.

    Also, try newspapers to see if there's a record of his conviction.
