[District Court Judge Anthony Halpin]

In Tallaght District Court:

A judge has caused outrage after saying he thinks “Muslims feel they can actually beat their wives” during the trial of a Somali man [Khadar Younis] accused of burglary at his former wife’s [Kara Ibrahim] house.

…

[Defence solicitor John O’Leary]  said there was no suggestion of a physical assault and Ms Ibrahim then said that she wanted to drop the case.

Outrage as judge claims: ‘Muslims feel they can beat their wives’ (Independent.ie)
