A 35-year-old Saggart man appeared in Kilmainham District Court yesterday on two charges of having unlawful sex with a 15-year-old girl in September and October 1998.
Det Sgt Kieran Savage asked for an independent bail. He told the court that he had requested the defendant to stay away from the girl during the investigation, but he had not complied.
Judge Hussey set cash bail of £1,000 and remanded him to July 7th, on condition that he sign on at Rathcoole Garda Station and did not contact the alleged injured party.
