A man and woman charged in connection with the interception of a bomb in County Monaghan have been remanded in custody.
They appeared in separate courts today.
25-year-old Isobella Perrie Sullivan of Abbeylands Park in Clane, County Kildare, and Simon O'Donovan, 44, with an address at Sperrin Road in Dublin 12, are both charged with possession of explosives.
Ms Sullivan appeared before Monaghan District Court this morning, where she was remanded in custody with consent to bail.
The accused told the judge she thought she was getting out today with bail, however the judge said he had not received an application to approve the surety.
She's due before court again on August 7th.
At the Special Criminal Court in Dublin, Mr O'Donovan was remanded in custody to the 5th of October for service of the book of evidence.
He was advised to contact his solicitor, who wasn't present in court today, to consider how to progress a second bail application.
