The man, in his 30s, has been charged with breaching a barring order and being intoxicated to such an extent he was a danger to himself and others

The man’s parents were not on the property at the time. However, it was alleged he also told another family member there that he would “light” the house if he returned. The garda feared witness intimidation and further breaches of the barring order.

The court heard the accused, yet to indicate a plea resides at a different location. However, his barrister Kevin McCrave said his client would obey bail conditions, including staying away from the site of the alleged incident.Judge Dermot Simms granted bail but required approval of a €500 independent surety before the accused could be released. Describing the charges as “very serious”, he said the terms could ensure no further problems.

Once bail has been taken up, the man must stay away from his parents’ home and the wider area and sign on daily at a Garda station. The bail restrictions were modified to allow him to participate in his sports activities which his barrister said showed the man was not without pro-social attitudes.The case resumes later this month. Legal aid was granted.
