Inga Ozolina (48) was in a ‘volatile relationship’ with Audrius Pukas (43), court told

A woman has gone on trial at the Central Criminal Court accused of murdering her boyfriend by stabbing him in the chest in her Co Tipperary home over two years ago.

Mr Pukas was originally from Lithuania and he would stay at Ms Ozolina’s apartment in Roscrea, said Mr Murray, adding that they may have had Russian as a common language. In the early hours of November 20th, Ms Ozolina arrived at Roscrea garda station. Following this, gardaí went with the accused to her apartment and found Mr Pukas’ body in a bedroom. “By the time gardaí arrived, Mr Pukas was clearly deceased,” said counsel.

As a result of the wound, there was “massive haemorrhaging” to his left chest cavity and into the sack around the heart, he explained, adding that death would have ensued rapidly. He explained that the State’s case would be that self-defence does not apply in this incident and Ms Ozolina used the knife to kill Mr Pukas and had the intention of doing so at the time.
