Derry Magistrate's Court
A man who served four years in prison in the Republic of Ireland has appeared at Derry Magistrate's Court today after having been extradited.
John Paul Barrett (42) whose address was given as Ballymoneen Road in Galway faces charges of burglary and grievous bodily harm dating back to 2021.
Defence solicitor Paddy MacDermott said that his client had served four years in prison in the South and had been extradited at the weekend.
He said Barrett had consented to the extradition and asked for a short adjournment for a bail application to be made.
A police officer said that any such application would be contested by the police.
Barrett was remanded in custody to appear again on November 27 for a bail application.
