Overview
- The indictment alleges the 38-year-old sat beside an 18-year-old Swedish tourist in the Hotel Martinique steam bath and touched his genitals against his will until he said, “No, no, no,” and left.
- Prosecutors are seeking an 18-month sentence, a two-year ban on working with minors beyond any prison term, court costs, and £440 in compensation.
- The woman was arrested in early June, spent a night in custody, and was released on bail with permission to return to Ireland during the investigation.
- Two responding police officers are listed as witnesses alongside the complainant and the defendant, and no trial date has been set as a pre-trial resolution remains possible.
- Defense counsel has indicated plans to seek dismissal, and reports differ on the complainant’s age, with the indictment stating 18 and an earlier police statement citing 20.
