Five men have appeared in court, charged following riots near Citywest Hotel in Dublin last night.

Six people were arrested following the incident, with a woman later released without charge.

The five before Dublin District Court today were:

50-year-old Darren Monks of Cloonmore Gardens, Jobstown Tallaght, 53-year-old Mark Molloy of Rathlawns, Rathcoole, 44-year-old Karol Piskorski of Eaton Green, Rathcoole, 48-year-old Vincent Meaney of Kindlestown Park, Greystones Wicklow and Creagh Woods, Gorey, Wexford and 39-year-old Graham Jennings of Elm Walk, Forest Hills, Rathcoole.

All of the accused, apart from one, are facing two public order offences.

Mr Piskorski has been charged with carrying a knife. He told the court he wasn’t at the scene of last night’s unrest.

All five were granted bail today, subject to certain conditions, including that they stay away from the Citywest Hotel and its environs.

Mr Jennings was also ordered to stay away from all IPAS centres.

They're all due to appear in court again on various dates in November.
