Represented by barrister Pat O'Sullivan, all four men previously sought bail in Killarney District Court.

Gardaí had requested a number of conditions, including all accused men stay off social media, have no contact with residents and family members of 11 Hazelwood Drive and reside in Kildare.

There were objections from Mr Harrington's and Christopher O'Brien's representative about staying outside of Killarney, save for court appearances and consultations.

Gardaí had told the court that since the two men have resided in Kildare, there have been no major incidents in the town.

All cases have been adjourned to 18th May in Killarney District Court, when DPP directions will be given.
