Man pleads innocent to threatening to kill gardai

A LIMERICK man has said he will be pleading innocent to three charges of threatening to kill members of An Garda Siochana.
“I am completely innocent your honour”, was the response made by 34-year-old Aidan Power of Miltown, Ballysimon as Judge Eamon O’Brien adjourned the matter until February 9 next. The accused man was remanded on continuing bail.

Mr Power is charged with allegedly threatening to kill members of the force during three separate telephone calls made to Henry Street Garda Station.
The unemployed man was granted free legal aid and Chris Lynch was assigned to the case.
Inspector Seamus Ruane told the court that the DPP consented to the matter being dealt with summarily at the District Court and the matter was adjourned until next year with Mr Power remanded on continuing bail.
