Longford Courthouse
A defendant facing money laundering charges will have the charges against him heard in the Circuit Court.
Stephen O'Reilly (35) of Corboy, Edgeworthstown was served the Book of Evidence against him at Longford District Court.
The charge levelled against the defendant is that on November 18, 2021 at Corboy, Edgeworthstown he knowingly or recklessly engaged in the transfer of property the proceeds of criminal conduct to the value of €5,055.
Sergeant Mark Mahon told Judge Bernadette Owens that the Director of Public Prosecution was seeking to have the matter sent forward for trial in the Circuit Court on the single charge set out in the Book of Evidence.
Sgt Mahon said the State was happy to allow the imposition of bail conditions already set out in the District Court on the defendant's own bond of €100.
Judge Owens issued the defendant with an alibi warning, and assigned Mr O'Reilly legal aid. The matter will be heard in the Circuit court this week.
