Mr Frahill was charged with assault causing harm to his son, Gino Frahill – who is in his late 20s – at Glasslynn Road, Bandon, on March 31st. Mr Frahill was also charged with two further charges of producing a knife in the course of a fight and of producing a knife, thereby causing a breach of the peace, all on the same occasion. Sgt Brian Harte said that gardaí were preparing a file for the DPP but that they had no objection to bail for Mr Frahill.
