A man accused of murdering a father-of-two in Cobh, Co Cork, is to apply for bail in the High Court next week.
Dylan Scannell, 30, of O'Rahilly Street in Cobh is charged with the murder of Ian Baitson, 33, at Newtown Road in the town on March 15th last.
Mr Baitson was injured shortly before 9 pm in a Eurospar car park and taken to Cork University Hospital for treatment but was pronounced dead four days later.
Mr Scannell had been remanded in custody following a District Court appearance on March 25th.
In July, he was further charged with two additional offences.
One of the newer charges was for the production of a long-bladed sword capable of inflicting serious injury in the course of a dispute and in a manner likely to unlawfully intimidate another person on March 15 at the Eurospar car park.
The other was under money laundering legislation for possessing crime proceeds between August 2023 and March 2024.
As he faces a murder charge, a bail application must be brought before the High Court in Cloverhill, Dublin.
It was listed there before Ms Justice Karen O'Connor on Thursday, and the court heard a garda witness was expected to object to Mr Scannell's application.
Ms Justice O'Connor adjourned the bail hearing until August 29th, when it will have priority on the court's list.
