A PARANOID schizo-phrenic who was jailed for stabbing a man to death on a Limerick street was yesterday jailed for 10 years at Limerick Circuit Court for a vicious knife attack on the psychiatrist who was treating him after his release.

THE governor of Limerick prison has issued an urgent appeal to the HSE to restore much needed psychiatric services to inmates.

THE consultant psychiatrist who suffered horrific wounds when a patient went on a rampage at a Limerick day hospital on Thursday was still critical but stable last night.
