THE DEPARTMENT OF Foreign Affairs has confirmed to TheJournal.ie that it is providing consular assistance to a young Irish woman after she was beaten and raped in Poland last week.
On Monday, Polish police arrested a 24-year-old Armenian man over the sexual attack, which allegedly occurred in the town of Konstancin-Jeziorna on Friday.
According to the Irish Daily Mirror, the incident occured at a legal conference in the small town, 18km south of the capital Warsaw. The newspaper reports that both the suspect and the 28-year-old victim had attended the conference.
Following a court hearing, the 24-year old suspect is being detained at a local prison. He could face up to 12 years in prison.

That man was a true legend. A real movie star who ate up the screen. Made a number of movies in Ireland and was never less than a real talent. Never really hit the heights but he was still cool enough to do a turn for Tarantino in Inglorious B*stards a couple of years ago. Could have watched him in anything.
I’d say the time machine would be one of his best performances when he has to face the morlocks. When I was a child they frightened the life out of me and gave me terrible nightmares. I look at the film now and laugh at how badly they look.
I had nightmares for years about the Morlocks.
‘The Time Machine’ was my own favourite.
Remember when He was on the late late show with Oliver Reed, & Gay Byrne goaded the two of them into arm wrestling on the studio floor….??
ps. Rod Taylor won.
The Late Late was mighty back then …. most of the guests were piddled !
Yeah, – like the night Oliver Reed was trying to get the leg over Susan George.
Thanks for the memories. And he was sooooo handsome to boot.
Morlocks!
Was great in the movie ‘Hotel’ as well..and in the ‘VIP’s'… old school actor who did it as it should be done.
He opened waterford city shopping centre with gay Byrne in the mid to late 70′s…remember thinking as a child ooh that’s the guy from bobcats which was shown on rte.obviously shooting one of his irish movies at the time.loved him in time machine another where he played a mercinary fighting in the Belgian Congo.
The Mercenaries, that and the Time Machine were his best movies
Great movie.
I used to love watching him in “Bearcats” years ago, what a show.
For me ” The Birds” from his movies and “Bearcats ” from his tv series.
A great old-style actor who never quite achieved the success and accolades he deserved. The Time Machine is one of my favourite films head and shoulders above the more recent remake.
The Time Machine is a movie ill always watch when its on telly, he was excellent in it. Don’t know why that descendant of H.G Wells had such a problem with it, probably more loyal to the book than his noughties version was
Sad news
Birds is it ?
have your say
