Cases
latest first- Man sentenced for assault causing harm at Dublin Airport Assault causing harm · Co. Dublin
A German man in his 50s was stabbed multiple times with a penknife outside Terminal 1 at Dublin Airport on 17 September 2023 in what gardaí described as a random, unprovoked attack. Kasonga Mbuyi, a 52-year-old Angolan-born Irish citizen with an address in Limerick, was arrested at the scene and charged with assault causing harm and production of a penknife. He pleaded guilty at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court in May 2025, where the court heard he was suffering from a paranoid delusion and had since been diagnosed with schizophrenia. In October 2025, Judge Martina Baxter imposed a two-and-a-half-year sentence, suspended on conditions, with 18 months' Probation Service supervision.
