A 47 year old man accused of seriously assaulting three women in a local housing estate, has appeared before Dundalk district court .
Nicholas Muckian with an address at Glenwood, Dundalk is charged with three counts of assault causing harm, at the same location, in Glenwood last Friday 5 May.
The alleged victims are aged in their 80s, 70s and 40s.
Mr Muckian is further charged with unlawfully intimidating another person with a hatchet at the same location on the same date.
This morning, after Garda Kate Brady told the court there would be an objection to bail, the Defence solicitor Aimee McCumiskey said there would be no application for bail “at this time”.
Judge Eirinn McKiernan remanded Mr. Muckian in custody to Dundalk District Court next Wednesday for the directions of the DPP.
The judge also directed that 48 hours’ notice be given to the State in the event of a bail application being made.
