A Cork man accused of taking part in an attack on a Spanish student walking home through the city was remanded in custody for another fortnight as the judge said the prosecution had questions to answer on the progress of the case.

Judge Colm Roberts said: “The two main questions are: 1. Has the garda file been sent to the DPP? And 2. When will the DPP be able to give directions?”
