A PRIEST has appeared in court charged with multiple counts of indecently assaulting a young boy over a three-year-period.

The man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared before Judge Marian O’Leary at Limerick District Court this morning.

Sergeant Michael Reidy gave evidence of arresting the accused prior to court for the purpose of charge.

He said the defendant, whose aged in his early 60s, made no reply as each of the eight charges were put to him.

The offences are alleged to have taken place at a location in East Limerick over a three year period in the late Eighties and early Nineties.
