Former Dublin footballer Diarmuid Connolly punched two men and dragged one of them along the ground in an"unprovoked" New Year's Eve attack, a court has heard.
"Mr Kiely alleged that in an unprovoked assault, he was punched and dragged to the ground by Mr Connolly, resulting in Mr Connolly ripping a North Face jacket belonging to Mr Kiely." However, prosecution solicitor Niall McGinty explained that they decided not to stay after learning about the course their attacker had taken.
Defence solicitor Daniel Hanahoe told the court his client worked as an electrician and has two young children.
