A man is due in court in Dublin this morning charged in connection with a serious assault on a woman in Tallaght last year.

The 32-year-old woman suffered serious head injuries during the incident at her home in St. Dominic's Terrace on August 23rd 2012.

A 43-year-old man was arrested in Germany earlier this month in connection with the assault following an extensive Garda investigation.

He will appear before Tallaght District Court later today.
