Man may have to be moved from Cork Prison to different jail for mental health supports

The solicitor for Tansanqa Radise told a judge that his client could not get a bed at the HSE's Carraig Mór centre in Cork because he had an address in Dublin.

A man already in custody for five months and deemed unfit to plead before a court may have to be moved from Cork Prison to another jail just to access required mental health supports.

The solicitor for Tansanqa Radise told a judge that his client faces a wait of six months to enter the Central Mental Hospital, and that he could not get a bed at the HSE's Carraig Mór centre in Cork because he had an address in Dublin.
