A Dublin man has appeared in court charged over the death of a woman in a car crash in Fairview last May.

Thousands of car buyers who responded to an advertisement for a cut-price car got more than they bargained for when the voicemail on the number they were asked to ring turned out to be a road safety message.

The Garda Ombudsman has said a woman killed in a crash in Dublin overnight has been identified.

A 25-year-old man has been given a 12-year sentence by Judge Frank O’Donnell at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court for transporting ecstasy with an estimated €2.6m street value.
