Man accused of All Ireland GAA ticket fraud remanded in to custody

By Paul Higgins and Robert Skates

A Belfast man accused of online ticket fraud and other offences has appeared at Belfast Magistrates Court.

Thirty year old Wesley Brennan with an address at College Green spoke only to confirm he understood the charges.

The accused appeared on a total of eleven offences across two bills of indictment.

In relation to the alleged GAA online ticket fraud, Brennan was charged with fraud by false representation on dates between 21 August and

September this year in that he allegedly created false advertising with intent to cause loss to a named victim and "at least two other people."

On that same indictment, Brennan was also accused of stealing a PS4, a controller and six games worth £500. 

Giving evidence to the court, Detective Constable Wilson said he knew the circumstances behind each of the offences and he believed he could connect Brennan to them. 

As no application for bail was lodged with the court, District Judge George Conner remanded Brennan into custody to appear again via videolink on 29 September.
