A man in his 60s has been charged with assault causing harm, following the death of his son in Kilkenny.
The incident happened at a house on the Castlecomer Road in the city on Monday.
Zbigniew Besnarczyk with an address of Meadow Way, Kilkenny, appeared before before Carlow District Court this afternoon.
The 61-year-old was charged with assault causing serious harm, which resulted in the death of his son Rafal Besnarczyk Jacyna.
Mr Besnarczyk, did not speak during the appearance and was assisted in court by a Polish interpreter.
