A man and a woman charged with brothel-keeping on Watercourse Road in Cork in 2021 entered signed guilty pleas on Wednesday.

Sergeant John Dineen confirmed at Cork District Court the two accused had signed guilty pleas. They were both represented by solicitor Shane Collins-Daly. Free legal aid was granted for the representation of both accused after Judge Dorgan was told they were dependent on social welfare payments.
