An alleged shoplifter accused of stealing more than €2,300 worth of beauty products from a Boots outlet in Dublin has been remanded in custody.

Suzanne Shannon, 29, of Avondale House, North Cumberland Street, Dublin, was charged with theft of €1,009 worth of Aimee Connolly beauty products from the premises on Lower Rathmines Road on Friday.

The mother of five was also accused of stealing various cosmetic products valued at €1,399 from the same pharmacy on February 3.

She appeared before Judge Grainne Malone at Dublin District Court on Saturday when Garda Stephen Walsh said the woman replied “sorry” when charged.

He also told the court that following her arrest for the theft on Friday, he became aware of the previous alleged incident.

Judge Malone noted that she was not applying for bail, and Ms Shannon said, “No, it’s for the best at the moment.”

The judge noted she was unemployed and granted her legal aid.

She directed the defence solicitor to give the garda prior notice if Ms Shannon intended to move a bail application.

The accused, yet to indicate a plea, was remanded in custody to appear again on Thursday.
