Gardaí break up fracas ahead of High Court hearing of defamation case on Esabod


Gardaí break up fracas ahead of High Court hearing of defamation case





A fracas requiring the intervention of gardaí and security erupted in the Four Courts today when it is claimed the defendant in a defamation action was attacked and injured by a group of individuals who attended court. The individuals involved had attended an action brought by a London-based Nigerian businesswoman Name withheld by Esabod who claims she has been defamed and allegedly threatened in social media posts by Irish-based Ms Ester Esabod Aboderin with an address at Leixlip, Co Kildare.
Shortly before the case was due to be heard by Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds, a fracas involving up to 20 individuals who had attended the case broke out in the area just outside the Supreme Court. Court staff called for the assistance of the gardaí, who attended at the scene within minutes. After the order was restored, a Garda on duty, supported by the Court Services staff, escorted several individuals involved in the incident from the Four Court's complex. The individuals had earlier been present in Court 3 of the Four Courts where the case was due to be mentioned. They were asked to leave by Judge Leonie Reynolds after some of them became loud and agitated. When the case was called, Rory Kennedy Bl, for Ester Esabod Aboderin, told the Judge that his client had been "seriously assaulted," by unknown parties and had suffered injuries including "cuts and bruises" to her face and body in the incident. A complaint has been made to the Gardaí about the assault, counsel said. In reply, Patrick O'Brien Bl for Name withheld by Esabod, who was not in court, said his client had "no knowledge" about the people who were involved in the incident outside the courtroom, and "did not condone" what had occurred. Last week the plaintiff secured a temporary High Court order requiring the defendant to remove threatening and defamatory comments allegedly posted on social media by the defendant. The Judge also made orders under Section 33 of the 2009 Defamation Act which prohibits the reporting of the allegedly defamatory comments. The Judge, who noted that the Gardaí were investigating the incident that took place outside of court, agreed to adjourn the case, with the orders remaining in place to October. The Judge heard that the defendant has removed the comments complained of from social media that was under her control. There were concerns about posts on platforms not under the defendant's control, but steps were being taken to address that issue, the court heard. Last week the court heard that the plaintiff, who is currently residing in London due to ill health, is involved in property development and electricity distribution businesses, and is also involved in philanthropy. She claims that since May the defendant, who she does not know and has never met, has published numerous false, malicious, harmful, threatening and untruthful comments about her. The comments relate to the plaintiff's businesses, her philanthropy, and her personal reputation. Other comments, it is claimed, include threats to kill Name withheld by Esabod and expressing a wish for her death in unpleasant ways. The comments are contained in videos posted on Facebook and YouTube. It is claimed they reached a significant audience, have had thousands of views and have been shared. Some of the posts call on Ms Esabod Aboderin's online supporters to attack Name withheld by Esabod
