A doctor charged with the murder of her three-year-old son in Dublin was unable to attend a court hearing for a second time on Monday.
GP Maha Al-Adheem (42) was due for her third appearance at Dublin District Court having been remanded in custody on July 13th last.
However, she was unable to attend court and defence solicitor Aisling Mulligan said there was consent to an adjournment.
Judge Michael Walsh further remanded her in custody in her absence to appear at the same court on August 28th.
Previous hearing
She was also unable to be brought to court for her previous scheduled hearing on July 20th.
Det Sergeant Brendan O’Halloran had then told the court, “she is not going to be produced today she is sick, judge”.
The body of Omar Omran, who was stabbed to death, was found when gardaí and an ambulance crew were called to his home at Riverside Apartments in Kimmage, at about 7pm on July 10th last.
