A 17-year-old Somalian boy has been remanded in custody charged with the murder of Ukrainian teenager Vadym Davydenko at an emergency Tusla residential care unit in north Dublin.
The accused appeared before Dublin District Court yesterday evening.
Vadym, also aged 17, was stabbed during an incident at about 11am on Wednesday at a 24-hour facility in an apartment building in Donaghmede.
The teenager, who had recently graduated from high school in Kyiv, travelled to this country and arrived about three days before he died.
The accused, who cannot be named because he is a minor with a legal right to anonymity, was brought before Judge Treasa Kelly at Dublin District Court.
He's been remanded in custody to the Oberstown Children Detention Campus in Dublin and will face his next hearing at the Children’s Court on Tuesday.
