State solicitor Gerry Meaney informed the court that the Director of Public Prosecutions had directed the matter be sent forward for trial at the next sessions of Kilkenny Circuit Court, starting on February 24.
Judge Geraldine Carthy gave the usual alibi warning to the defendant. He was remanded on bail on conditions including that he reside at a designated address, ensure he is contactable by gardaí on mobile phone and not apply for any travel documents.
