Dublin women secure barring orders against aggressive partners

A woman in Dublin has secured a barring order against her partner, who allegedly became aggressive and controlling due to heavy drinking and drug use. She reported he checks her food and restricts her movements, causing significant distress. In a separate case, a man consented to a three-year barring order after allegedly assaulting his partner in front of their children. He expressed remorse in court, while she had previously obtained an interim order due to severe injuries.
