She said when she returned from work Breen was in the property and had taken her phone and tablet.

When she started walking to the police station to complain the defendant was said to have followed her and eventually handed back her phone.

On September 16 the woman's mother told her Breen had sent her naked images of her and she reported this to police as well as to the woman herself.

The woman said that on occasions Breen had taken her bank card and turned up at her work on random occasions.

After being arrested Breen made a phone call to a relative and was heard saying there was 'nothing' for him in Derry and he intended to go back to Cork.

He was also heard asking the relative to contact the alleged victim's family to 'resolve the matter'.

The alleged injured party told police that on September 17 she had received a call at her work from Breen's relative advising her she could lose her job.

When she hung up her supervisor the received a call from the same person.

Bail was opposed due to risk of flight and risk of interference with witnesses.

Defence solicitor Seamus Quigley said the defendant intended to return to Cork and his family could offer a cash surety.

He said Breen could be barred from the North except for court appearances.

Deputy District Judge Alan White said that even at these early stages there appeared to be an attempt at interference with witnesses.

He said contact could be made from anywhere and there was a clear risk of interference.

Breen was remanded in custody to appear again on October 16.
