Spanish authorities have frozen Gerry Hutch’s property assets in the country as part of an ongoing money-laundering investigation into the gangland figure, who plans to run in a byelection in Dublin next month.

A French woman who lived in south Dublin has been charged with the murder of her 29-year-old daughter in a suspected botched murder-suicide in Iceland last year.

Confusion about the new rental reforms is causing some landlords to wrongly issue eviction notices, according to tenants’ support charity Threshold.

In his column today, Seán Moncrieff says he’s the only male at home and it’s not weird. It’s a fascinating honour.
