Bail objection in child pornography trial

GARDAÍ yesterday objected to an application for bail by a man charged with distributing child pornography.

The defendant’s solicitor requested an adjournment to their application after the prosecution said they had objections under Section 2 of the Bail Act 1997.

The 47-year-old man is charged with possessing images on November 5 last contrary to Section 6.1 of the Child Trafficking and Pornography Act 1998.
