Tesco ban for lewd acts

A Dublin man has been told he must stay out of all Tesco stores after he masturbated in public in the vicinity of children at a Tesco store in Tralee two nights in a row in 2013.

Iosach O’Riain, aged 26, of Mount Eagle Rise, Leopardstown Heights, Dublin 18, pleaded guilty to two charges of “outraging public decency”. The charge was contrary to common law.

At the sentencing hearing yesterday the judge said the acts were “lewd in the extreme”.
