The woman who was taken to hospital after having apparently been assaulted in Arklow, Co Wicklow over the weekend, has died. Nadine Lott, who was in her early 30s, suffered serious injuries in the early hours of Saturday morning. Detective Garda Hall told the court that Mr Murtagh said “sorry” in response to a charge of assault causing harm to Ms Lott. Mr Murtagh was represented by solicitor Pádraig O’Donovan. Judge David Kennedy granted legal aid but refused bail, and remanded Mr Murtagh in custody to appear at Cloverhill Court on Thursday, December 19th.
