  "account": "Mary Lynch, the mother of Michael Lynch who has been charged with the murder of Limerick woman Carrie Mullane, appeared in Dungannon Magistrates Court on Monday. She faces a charge of withholding information from police about Carrie's disappearance. Carrie was last seen on October 10th when she traveled from Limerick to Enniskillen. Police found a body in Lough Erne, and Michael Lynch, Carrie's son, has also been charged with murder and preventing the lawful burial of a corpse. When questioned about her identity, Mary Lynch confirmed she understood the charge and was accompanied by a walking stick. The police objected to her bail, citing concerns over the supplied address being in the Republic of Ireland. Judge Francis Rafferty remanded her in custody until November 18th, requiring an address within Northern Ireland.",
