A Dublin man has admitted to thirteen charges of indecent assault on three female members of his family over 30 years ago.
The 72-year-old man, who cannot be named to protect the identity of his victims, pleaded guilty to six charges of indecent assault of the first victim, six charges of indecent assault in relation to the second and one charge of indecent assault in relation to the third woman on dates between October 1st, 1978 and December 31st, 1985.
Mr Justice Paul Carney declared the man a sex offender and ordered victim impact reports for each of the women.
He remanded the accused on continuing bail, after he was informed that there was no objection from the Director of Public Prosecutions, and set a sentence date for April.
