Remand On Dublin Woman's Death
A 61-year-old man has appeared in court charged with the unlawful killing of his wife in Ballybrack in Dublin last November.
Thomas Breen, of Willowvale in Ballybrack, was charged before Dún Laoghaire District Court.
57-year-old Carmel Breen's body was found at her home in Ballybrack on 7 November.
In court today, Mr Breen was remanded on bail of €5,000 until 21 July and was ordered to surrender his passport.
