Man Charged In Connection With Murder Of Mother And Her Two Children In Dublin

A man has appeared before Dún Laoghaire District Court charged with murdering a woman and two children in south Dublin last month.

The man was arrested over the weekend and is facing three charges of murder.

During his brief court appearance this morning, Judge Anne Watkin was told he didn't say anything to gardaí when the charges were put to him.

The bodies of a woman and two children were found in a house in south Dublin last month.

The journalists in attendance were reminded of Section 252 of the Children's Act, which prohibits the identification of child victims.

Last month, the Court of Appeal ruled that the protection includes child victims who are deceased.

Sergeant John White said it would apply here because two of the injured parties were juveniles.
