A youth who allegedly knocked a girl “head first” under a Dart train and “nonchalantly” moved away, has been sent forward for trial at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

One of them had an additional charge for assault causing harm to the girl. He faced a preliminary hearing at the Dublin Children's Court in December.
