Judge Olann Kelleher further remanded Mr Rajan in custody until August 28th for DPP directions.
Defence solicitor Eddie Burke previously requested that his client be seen by a prison psychiatrist for treatment for his depression. Judge Kelleher directed that Mr Rajan receive appropriate medical attention in custody. Mr Burke also previously applied for, and was granted, free legal aid for his client, who he said had no income or means.
Ms Dinamani was a chartered accountant who was working as a senior manager in fund services at a company based in the Airport Business Park in Cork. The deceased, who is the mother of a five-year-old son, was from Kerala in southern India and had been living in Cork for just three months.
