Solicitor: Dolores getting medical care

Singer Dolores O’Riordan is receiving ongoing medical treatment, a solicitor told a district court where she faces charges relating to an alleged air-rage incident at Shannon Airport last year.

The mother-of-three is accused of three minor assault offences and one of obstruction. Her solicitor Bill O’Donnell told Ennis District Court his client, not present in court, was “receiving ongoing medical treatment” in a residential setting.

He said Ms O’Riordan “continues to benefit from the treatment” and applied to have the case adjourned to a later in the year for a plea, or a date for hearing.
