A man has appeared in court charged in relation to the false imprisonment of a woman earlier this week.

Mr. O’Reilly is also charged with threats to kill, assault and the possession of knives.
The court heard that the 31-year-old victim, who cannot be named to protect her identity, described being locked in a van that Karl O’Reilly was driving on March 12th.
During this ordeal he threatened to kill her and held a pen knife to her throat.
The woman was subsequently found by gardaí in Mayo and Mr O’Reilly was arrested.
