A man was arrested after a court hearing in Limerick yesterday where a 45-year-old teacher was facing charges of sexual abuse. Gardai said the man was facing a charge of common assault on the accused.
The father of three who appeared in court yesterday is facing six charges of sexual abuse against two teenage boys. Five of the charges are related to one boy. The abuses are alleged to have taken place in three different counties in the midwest between September 1994 and March 1997.
Judge Leo Malone at Limerick District Court further remanded the accused by consent to September 13th on his own continuing bail of £900 and an independent surety of £6,000 or two independent sureties of £3,000 each. He also extended the period of time for the service of the book of evidence.
