A MAN has appeared in court charged with possession of a slash hook in a Kilmallock bar over the Christmas holidays.

Giving evidence of arrest, charge and caution, Garda Robert Young of Kilmallock garda station told Newcastle West Court that Conway was arrested at his home at approximately 7.25am on the morning of the court.

He was also ordered to stay away from Daffy’s Bar and business premises at Wolfe Tone Street, Kilmallock and he must also stay sober as a condition of his bail.

Judge Mary Larkin adjourned the case to Kilmallock Court on February 1, next when the matter is in for mention.
