Three former teachers at a Cork boarding school have appeared in court charged with indecently assaulting a number of pupils at the school over a 20-year period.

The three men were all members of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart at the time of the alleged abuse.

These charges come after a two year long investigation by gardai into allegations of abuse at Colaiste Chroi Naofa in Carrignavar, Co. Cork

80-year-old Donnacha MacCarthaigh with an address care of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, Western Road, Cork was charged with a total of 42 counts of indecent assault on 14 boys at Colaiste Chroi Naofa in Carrignavar on various dates between 1969 and 1989.

69-year-old Tadhg O'Dalaigh, with an address at Woodview, Mount Merrion Avenue, Blackrock, Dublin was charged with two counts of indecent assault on two boys at the school on various dates between 1979 and 1985.

And 66-year-old Liam O'Brien, also with an address at Woodview in Blackrock was charged with one count of indecent assault on one boy at Colaiste Chroi Naofa on a date between 1985 and 1986.

Judge Gibbons remanded all three accused to appear again at Cork District Court on December 12 and he refused applications by defence solicitors seeking a prohibition on identification of their clients.
