Man Charged With Theft And Fraud Offences In Cork

A 45-year-old man has appeared in court charged in connection with a number of theft and fraud offences in Cork City.

An investigation began in 2014 after Gardaí received a complaint against the suspect.

The man was originally arrested on 10 December 2015 regarding offences under the Criminal Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences) Act, 2001.

He was released from Garda custody without charge and a file was prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions, who directed that he be charged with a number of offences. He was re-arrested and appeared before Cork City District Court on Tuesday, 03 January.

The suspect was remanded on bail to appear again before the court on Thursday, 16 February.
