Dubliner accused of constantly crank calling 999 ordered to stop




A Dublin man accused of making “persistently” phone calls has been ordered not to buy a new mobile phone or call 999 in an emergency, reports Breaking News.

William Green (47), of Bective Square, Dublin 7, appeared before Judge Michelle Finan at Dublin District Court on Saturday.

Garda Jeremy Gibbons charged him with an offence under section 13 of the Post Office (Amendment) Act 1951 without reasonable excuse on August 24 for making incessant telephone calls intended to cause annoyance, inconvenience or unnecessary anxiety to another person.

There was no objection to the bail given by the court.

Green, who receives a disability pension, was ordered to remain sober, report regularly to his local garda station, not buy a mobile phone and “not contact 999 emergency services”, reports Breaking News.

Judge Finan warned him that conditions must be complied with and ordered him released on bail pending a direction from the Director of Public Prosecutions to appear again in December.

This offence is punishable by one month imprisonment, reports Breaking News.
