Spanish student attacked

[hollyisalovelyname]

I am on no other public forum so I will use Craicnet to state my utter horror on hearing of the sex attack on the young Spanish girl visiting Dublin.
I am appalled by it and ashamed it happened in my home city.
Bail laws should be much stricter and better enforced.
Words of sympathy to the victim are useless in a situation like this.
I am so sad and angry that this happened to a young girl visiting our country.

This was an awful attack - sickening. My daughter is only 6 but I can't imagine her growing up and going off on her first big adventure and something horrible like this happening. She and her family must be in a very dark place. Life can be very unfair..

How on earth has he been released without charge?!

That poor woman

I think he has now been remanded in custody.
The poor girl and her family.

My lay understanding is that he was released without charge while the file was with the DPP for review and determination about going for a prosecution, which is common practice.

It was a horrific attack on the young woman in question, I hope she is getting all the support she needs.
