A man in his 30s has been charged in connection with the fatal assault of a 47-year-old Slovakian national in Newbridge last month.
Marcel Kusenda, who lived in Ireland for over 20 years, was assaulted in Piercetown in Newbridge on March 8th last. He died two days later at Naas General Hospital.
Mr Kusenda was found with serious injuries outside a house in the town. Following the death an incident room was established at Newbridge Garda Station. An investigation was also launched under the direction of a senior investigating officer.
Mr Kusenda’s son, also called Marcel, paid tribute to his father on social media following his death. He thanked him for everything he had done for him.
