Image: Laura Hutton via RollingNews.ie Image: Laura Hutton via RollingNews.ie THE TRIAL OF a Dublin couple accused of causing serious harm to their child has heard that medical staff observed burns and bruising all over the girl’s body.

They have also pleaded not guilty to child cruelty, contrary to the Children Act, by failing to provide adequate medical aid on the same occasion. The witnesses described finding a young girl laid out on a mattress in an untidy room. The girl was staring blankly with open eyes but her vision unresponsive and her face looked bruised.

A garda witness told the court that the man later told him the girl had not seen a doctor since arriving in Ireland.

Permantly disfigured, FGM?

Dublin couple 🤡

How can any parent or adult subject a defenceless child to any type of cruelty. Should never be allowed to have children.

Why waste time and money on a trial on these pair of monsters, open the cell door, close it and throw away the key, end of story

poor kid no child deserves to be treated badly scummy people to hurt a child

Disgraceful. But judge Nolan is so weak when it comes to sentencing or is that only with paedophiles!

A Dublin couple who are from North Africa 🧐

It's not a Dublin couple but a non-national couple.

Ah yeah the Africans doing their thing again as sometimes happens. They come here, we pay! A huge price on so many levels.

Absolutely vile. Parents are supposed to protect and nourish their children, how can they be so evil.

It is evident from reading this that there is a lot more not right or not told in the presentation of this case. The man, not the father? Was the dispondent child examined for sexual assault? Was familial association confirmed by DNA comparison of children to adults?

'Dublin couple'?

So they had at least one other child. Are all the children in care at this point? Absolutely horrific story.

Poor little thing, what an existence... pls tell me she was taken straight off them and into care.

That was a hard read. That poor poor pet- what a shit hand some people get dealt. Life can be so cruel. Her parents should never see the light of day again

The poor child, this was a tough read. Mother who didn’t notice bruises on her own daughter, wtf?

Irish parents have been known to do worse. Not sure why their nationality is of importance to people. Poor baby.

They're NOT a Dublin couple, you fools. They're foreign migrants.

“The 39-year-old man and 36-year-old woman, who are from North Africa”

Throw the parents in jail !!! Poor kid. This is awful.
