‘No comment’ on whether woman’s children will be taken into care

A member of the Roma gypsy community, Ms Paczkowska, of 55 Killeen Woods, Oakpark, Tralee, is charged with ill-treating a child in her care, at the same address, in a manner likely to cause unnecessary suffering, or injury to the child's health, on August 2-3 last. Her three-year-old daughter subsequently died.

It has now emerged that her other three children, were returned to her care, more than a week ago by a relative, against the wishes of the health services which wanted them to be accommodated elsewhere.
