Two members of An Garda Síochána who are facing a number of corruption linked charges have had their cases adjourned until May.

Garda Brian Carroll, aged 42, with an address at Ballinaboy, Kilteevan, Co Roscommon, faces a charge of disclosing confidential information in September 2021, which was obtained in the course of his duties.

He is also charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice where it is alleged he damaged his mobile phone prior to the lawful search of his home in March 2022.

Sergeant James Muldowney, aged 47, with an address at Greenville, Caltra, Ballinasloe, Co Galway, faces a charge of stealing cash at a property in Longford in September 2021.

He also faces a charge of attempting to obstruct the course of justice during an incident in Roscommon Town in January 2024.

Both members are attached to the Mayo/Roscommon/Longford Garda Division.

Niall Flynn BL, representing Gda Carroll, told the court that he was not in a position to progress matters today.

Judge Jonathan Dunphy remanded both men on continuing bail and they are due back before Longford Circuit Court on 19 May.
