Man seeks return of bracelet seized by gardaí

A man who was arrested as part of the investigation of a burglary nine years ago where jewellery was stolen came to court yesterday to apply for the return of his own bracelet from gardaí, saying it was of sentimental value.

Thomas Healy, aged 45, with an address at 8 Liam Lynch Park, Mitchelstown, County Cork, and formerly of Ardcullen, Hollyhill, Cork, had a bracelet seized from him in 2008 as part of an investigation into a burglary where jewellery was stolen.

He was not prosecuted in relation to that crime.
