Woman alleges ex-partner assaulted her after she showed him protection order

A woman in County Kildare alleges that her ex-partner assaulted her after she showed him a copy of a protection order she had obtained against him. The date of the alleged assault is not given. She applied for an interim barring order at Naas District Court, where the hearing was held in camera on Wednesday, April 16, and was reported on 22 May 2024. The judge said the alleged assault would breach the existing protection order, so the order would cover her, and advised her to make a complaint at her local garda station. No arrest or charge has been reported.
