Man faces series of charges

A 54-year-old man from south Wicklow appeared before the District Court in Gorey on a series of indecent assault and sexual assault charges.

On Thursday last, September 7, Bunclody-based Garda Martin Kehoe confirmed that 35 separate charges dating back to incidents over a period from 1991 to 1996 had been put to the accused, who made no reply. The court was told that the DPP had directed trial on indictment to a higher court. Bail was granted, with the condition that Bunclody gardaí must be notified of any change of address.
