The man accused of murdering childcare worker Elaine O'Hara may take his bid for bail to the Supreme Court.

Graham Dwyer, aged 41, with an address at Kerrymount Close, Foxrock, Dublin 18 was last month charged in court with killing the 37-year-old.

The architect and father of two was denied bail by the High Court earlier this month and is currently being held in Cloverhill Prison in Clondalkin in Co. Dublin.

According to the Irish Independent today, Dwyer is considering appealing the decision.

But because his appeal was denied by the High Court he will need to bring the case to the Supreme Court.

Elaine O'Hara disappeared in August 2012. Her remains were discovered by a walker in the Dublin Mountains last September.

O'Hara was originally from Killiney in south Dublin and was reported missing by her father on August 24th 2012, two days after she was seen leaving her home in Stepaside.

By coincidence, her mobile phone, keys and other personal belongings were found in a reservoir in Roundwood, Co. Wicklow just days beforehand.

GardaĆ­ ran through possible suspects whose contacts were on Elaine's phone. It's understood O'Hara and Dwyer may have made their acquintance through a website they both used.
