Offaly man accused of harming woman during assault
A man accused of assaulting a woman, causing her harm, appeared before Tullamore District Court last week.
Judge Andrew Cody was told that the DPP had directed that the prosecution of Arkadiusz Galecki (36), Clonshanna, Mountbolus for the alleged offence on October 18 last could be disposed of summarily.
In addition to the charge of assault causing harm, Mr Galecki is accused of assaulting the same woman contrary to Section 2 of the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act.
After hearing some details of the prosecution evidence Judge Cody accepted jurisdiction and remanded Mr Galecki on continuing bail to appear in court again on February 5 next when either a plea will be entered or a hearing will be scheduled for March 3.
The man, who is on legal aid, was represented in court by Aisling Maloney, solicitor.
