A 32 year old man has appeared in court, charged with the murder of Donegal businessman Stephen McCahill at his home in Ardara early Monday morning.

Solicitor Mark Mullaney made an application for legal aid, telling the court his client had a psychiatric illness and is on medication.
The accused was remanded in custody, to appear before the court again via videolink on Monday next, January 12th.
