A 21-year-old man has appeared in court charged with robbing a publican in Drogheda.
Karl Nugent from Brickfield, Drogheda, faces a single charge that he stole €420 from Liam Hodson.
The offence is alleged to have occurred at the Marsh House, Marsh Road, Drogheda on Saturday.
Garda inspector Brendan Cadden told Dundalk district court today there was no objection to bail being granted subject to a number of conditions.
They are that the accused lives at the address in Brickfield, Trinity Gardens, Drogheda, that he observes a curfew between 6pm and 8am daily and that he sign on daily at Drogheda garda station.
Judge Sinéad Ní Chulachan granted Nugent bail subject to those conditions on his own bond of €500 with an independent surety of €1,000.
The Judge was told that he was not in a position to take up the bail so he was remanded in custody with consent to appear at Cloverhill district court on the 21st of this month.
Defence solicitor Paddy Goodwin asked for legal aid which the Judge granted.
