Ireland Man breaches safety order on day of prison release
In July 2026, a man breached a safety order obtained by his mother on the day he was released from prison, when he returned to a property where she lived, and she contacted gardaí. He was charged with breaching the order, having also breached it in June and served time in custody for that breach. On 18 July 2026 he appeared at Limerick District Court, where gardaí objected to bail and his solicitor disputed the allegations. The judge granted bail on condition that he remain in custody until gardaí verify a new address, with a €100 own bond, garda signing, a curfew and the safety order conditions, and he is due back by video link early the following week.
