David Mahon was refused a bail variation in the Central Criminal Court on 27 November 2015 while charged with murdering Dean Fitzpatrick. The charge relates to the alleged killing of Mr Fitzpatrick at Northern Cross on Dublin’s Malahide Road on 26 May 2013.

The application sought permission for Mr Mahon to take a two-week trip to Spain. The court maintained conditions requiring him to sign on at a Garda station three times weekly and surrender his passport, after concerns were raised that he might be a flight risk. His trial was due to begin in April 2016.
