Derry Magistrate's Court
A man with an address in Letterkenny has appeared at Derry Magistrate's Court today charged with assaulting a female and threatening to kill her.
David Gildea (44) of Chestnut Grove in Letterkenny appeared at Derry Magistrate's Court facing a charge of assaulting a female on November 16.
He was also charged with threatening to kill the same woman on the same date and both charges were said to be aggravated by domestic abuse.
A police officer connected the accused to the charges and said a way forward had been agreed.
He said that the defendant had been overnight charged as he resided in the Republic but bail could be agreed if a cash sum was paid into tge court.
Defence solicitor Seamus Quigley said that that could be done.
Gilded was released on bail on condition he paid the cash sum, didn't enter a specific area of Derry and has no contact with the alleged injured party.
He will appear again on December 11.
