TWO YOUNG mums arrested at Dublin Airport after they refused to enter hotel quarantine on their return from Dubai spent last night in Mountjoy Prison s female wing, a source has claimed.
The pair are believed to have been placed in isolation in the Dublin jail - which is standard practice for new inmates admitted to the prison.
Yesterday, Tallaght District Court heard they had travelled abroad for what a judge said was ‘referred to colloquially as a boob job,’ yesterday.
The pair, Kirstie McGrath (30), of St Anthony s Road, Dublin 8 and Niamh Mulreany (25), of Scarlet Row, West Essex Street, Dublin, appeared before a sitting of the special Covid court in Tallaght yesterday afternoon.
The store had to shut down for “deep cleaning” after it was established he had coronavirus.
Gardai carried out enquiries with the HSE and Geraghty’s accommodation and he should have stayed in his hostel, the sergeant told the court.
He had been tested positive on Thursday evening.
The sergeant said Geraghty appeared to go out the following morning “and his sole purpose, knowing he was Covid positive, was to commit thefts”. It was accepted that he was easy to deal with on arrest.
The Health Act charge carried a possible six-month sentence and a €2500 fine.
Pleading for leniency, the defence said Geraghty was a qualified chef who fell into drug addiction. He was remorseful and realised he was facing jail.
There has been condemnation following a further night of disorder in Northern Ireland.
Police came under attack in Newtownabbey on the outskirts of Belfast on Saturday after violent scenes in the Sandy Row area in the city as well as Londonderry on Friday.
Police said it was the fifth consecutive night of disorder in Derry on Friday where 12 officers were injured by a large group of youths and young adults throwing masonry, bottles, petrol bombs and fireworks.
What is the point in this? Destroying your own communities is not the way to protest or vent. Why is it always our @PoliceServiceNI colleagues who face the brunt of this pointless violence? @naomi long@NIPolicingBoardpic.twitter.com/QGmNsjek3u Police Federation for Northern Ireland (@PoliceFedforNI) April 3, 2021
Former Miss World Rosanna Davison (36) may always come across as pristine and poised on her Instagram page - even though she is the mum of newborn identical twins and a toddler in the middle of a pandemic.
However, the daughter of singer Chris de Burgh recently showed the difference between Instagram and reality when she posted a picture of herself in a stunning purple dress and black high-heeled boots, while in the second she has her hair tied back and is cuddling her twin boys Hugo and Oscar.
