A man who was arrested after Gardaí made a public appeal on Crimecall has been granted bail after being charged with assault.
Abdelilah Habbouly (36), of Meadow Park, The Meadows, Hollyhill, Cork, was arrested in connection with the unprovoked assault on a young woman on Oliver Plunkett Street, Cork, on the 25th of November 2025.
