A Polish man arrested in Ballymahon last week has appeared before a sitting of the High Court on foot of an European arrest warrant, writes Liam Cosgrove.

The man, who is in his 50s, is also being investigated in connection with a series of alleged crimes in the greater Ballymahon area.

It is understood Gardaí arrested the man in response to a call from a member of the public last Tuesday.
