A seventh possible identity has emerged for an unsuccessful asylum seeker claiming to be from Palestine and Jordan, and who continues to be named only in court as "Unknown Unknown". The accused, who had no identity documents, is accused of obstructing a drug search on Monday at Store Street in the city centre.

He was remanded in custody for further enquiries, and the case resumed on Thursday. Garda O'Toole said in the intervening days, a man claiming to be a friend of the accused turned up at Store Street station and tried to convince officers that the accused used a specific name.

Judge Brennan remanded "Unknown Unknown", who did not address the court, in continuing custody to appear again at Cloverhill District Court next Thursday while gardaí and his solicitor continue to establish his real name. His solicitor, Paul Byrne, told Judge Brennan he had been "stonewalled" when he tried to make inquiries at the IPAS centre about his client.

He has stated that his client, in the early stage of these proceedings, had been in a panic and that the problem had been a lack of confidence. He had been here a year and had been unsuccessful in applying for asylum. The court heard he had a public service card, and on his phone, there was a picture of a manual handling certificate, in a different name.
