Two teenagers held in connection with an attack on a Polish man on Saturday morning have been released without charge.
A file is being prepared for the Director for Public Prosecutions.
Lukasz Rzeszutko (27) was on his way to a fish processing plant at the Newtown Industrial Estate in Coolock early on Saturday morning when he was assaulted by a number of men, sustaining serious head injuries.
It is understood he was punched and kicked before being left in a coma at the side of the road. It is understood Mr Rzeszutko had lived in Dublin with his brother since 2007.
He had been on a life-support machine in Beaumont hospital since the assault. Some family members travelled from Poland on Sunday to be at his bedside.
A Garda spokesman said Mr Rzeszutko died at about 7pm.
A spokesman for the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Dublin said consular staff were supporting Mr Rzeszutko’s family and were in contact with gardaí.
“His family arrived on Sunday, they came to Ireland to be with him,” the spokesman said.
Gardaí arrested three men over the incident and one of them appeared at Dublin District Court yesterday in connection with the attack.
Detective Garda Niall Gibbs told Judge David McHugh that the accused, Edward Byrne (20), with an address at a YMCA hostel in Dublin 8, was arrested on Sunday evening and made no reply when he was charged with assault causing harm.
Defence solicitor John Feeney told Judge McHugh that his client, who was dressed in a grey hooded top, black tracksuit bottoms and white trainers and remained silent during the proceedings, was deferring a bail application until Friday next.
Judge McHugh said that given the seriousness of the charges he was remanding the accused in custody to appear at Cloverhill District Court on Friday, October 8th.
Legal aid was granted after the court heard that the defendant was unemployed.
