Man held after woman knifed in neck and stomach
Denis Leahy, aged 48, from Dublin but of no fixed abode, having recently returned to Ireland after spending about a decade abroad, was charged under Section 4 of the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Persons Act which, on conviction, can carry a life-sentence.
He did not apply for bail and was remanded in custody yesterday for one week by Judge Patricia McNamara at Dublin District Court.
