A 44-year-old woman charged in connection with a bomb discovered in a vehicle has been granted bail, according to RTE.ie. The accused, a National Museum employee, appeared in court following the incident in Monaghan.
RTE.ie reports that the woman is now eligible to take up bail under conditions set by the court. The Irish Times adds that she was remanded in custody before the bail decision. The Journal notes that the defendant is a law student, while Irish Independent also confirms her student status.
The case involves two individuals charged over the bomb, with the BBC stating that both were due back in court as the law student faced a delay in the bail process. The bomb was intercepted in County Monaghan, according to The Journal. No further details on the device or the charges have been released by the authorities at this stage.
The court has yet to set a date for the next hearing, and the second accused person’s bail status remains unclear.
