Killing accused remanded in custody

A 44-year-old man accused of murdering a mother of three was anxious there would be no unnecessary delay in the case, his lawyer said.

The young woman was found with serious head injuries at a flat in Cork City earlier this year.

Cathal O’Sullivan, originally from Charleville, appeared at Cork District Court Court yesterday charged with the murder of Nicola Collins, aged 38, at his flat at Popham’s Rd, Farranree, on March 27.
