Criminal Courts of Justice
The State has withdrawn a charge of attempted murder against a 26-year-old man after it emerged the alleged victim has died.

The 42-year-old has subsequently died of natural causes and Sean Gillane SC for the prosecution today, Thursday, December 14 told Justice Patrick McCarthy at the Central Criminal Court that a "nolle prosequi" should be entered in relation to the charge. The trial had been listed for April next year.
