The woman charged in connection with the death of a man in Knocklyon, Dublin was released on bail yesterday in Tallaght District Court.
Ms Dolores O'Neill, aged 48, with an address at Coolamber Park, Knocklyon, is charged with assaulting Declan O'Neill causing harm at the above address on dates between July 22nd and 23rd last.
Giving evidence of arrest, charge and caution, Det Garda David Connolly told the court that Ms O'Neill had been arrested outside Hunters Inn, Ashford, Co Wicklow, on Tuesday. She had been charged at 4.21 p.m. and made no reply to the charge, the court heard.
Det Garda Connolly told the court that the State's application was for a remand in custody.
He added that further, more serious charges would be brought before the court.
Judge James McDonnell said: "That's not acceptable reasons for a remand in custody." Solicitor Robert Eager for Ms O'Neill said that it was a case where bail should be granted.
Judge McDonnell granted bail of €1,000 and with two sureties of €1,000 to Ms O'Neill on condition that she reside with her brother at Palmerstown Woods, Clondalkin, Dublin, that she signs on daily at Ballyfermot Garda Station, that she undertakes not to leave the country and that she surrenders her passport when it is located.
Two brothers of Ms O'Neill, Patrick and Thomas Cooke stood as sureties.
Judge McDonnell remanded Ms O'Neill on bail to Tallaght Court on July 31st next.
