Kildare woman claims her ex 'gave me a split nose' - and she brought photos to court
She said she went to the gardaí
Naas District Court was told that a man assaulted his ex-partner and split her nose.
The woman made the claim and her ex was neither present nor represented.
The court was told that each party has a protection order against the other the man had previously claimed he is afraid of her.
The woman claimed that she was punched in the face a number of times and she went to the gardaí.
The court was told that they live together but had split up.
She further alleged that she had sustained a black eye and he threatened to kill her and the children “if I ever tried to leave.”
She said she had made a statement when she went to the gardaí.
Judge Desmond Zaidan declined to grant a barring order, saying he was not satisfied that she had met the threshold for this.
He adjourned the case to May 12.
