Birthday date for Twink over car offences

Entertainer Adele King, better known as Twink, will be expected to come to court on her birthday to face a hearing for motoring offences, including driving without “reasonable consideration”.

The 61-year-old performer is being prosecuted for eight motoring offences but has not yet entered pleas and did not turn up for her court case yesterday.

Gardaí had applied for summonses to be issued in April and the case had its first listing at Dublin District Court yesterday.
