A 22-year-old man has appeared at a special court in Galway charged with damaging a US military plane at Shannon airport early this morning.
Eoin Dubsky has been released on his own bail but ordered to stay away from Shannon Airport.
The man, from Gorey, County Wexford, was detained and questioned at Shannon Garda Station all day after being arrested by airport police at around 5am.
He was charged at the District Court in Gort, County Galway, with causing criminal damage to a US Hercules military aircraft.
Gardai opposed the granting of bail because they feared he would re-offend if released.
Judge Joseph Mangan remanded the accused on his own bail of €200, but attached strict conditions.
Mr Dubsky is not allowed to go within five miles of Shannon Airport or its perimeter fence or he will be re-arrested.
He was remanded to appear at Shannon District Court on 17 October.
A second 27-year-old man from Limerick city has been released and a file is being sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Sargent accuses TaoiseachThe leader of the Green Party, Trevor Sargent, had earlier called for the immediate release of the two.
He suggested the Taoiseach should be arrested as he was flouting the Constitution by allowing foreign military aircraft to use Irish airports.
Aer Rianta is still carrying out an investigation into how security was breached at Shannon.
