Man held in custody for false detention

A Limerick man has been remanded in custody on a charge of falsely imprisoning another man at an address at Caisleann na Habhainn, Castletroy, Co Limerick, on Aug 19-20.

When a co-accused, aged 15, facing the same charge was remanded by Limerick District Court on Aug 22, the court heard the alleged crime was sometimes referred to as ‘tiger kidnapping’.

Det Garda Vincent Brick said when he charged Zachery Coughlan Ryan, aged 34, he made no reply to the charge.
