I think we will get a much better

response if we reveal all the details.

We won't release your name.

We'll only do this with your consent.

And we totally respect your decision.

I'm sorry. I can't do it.

No.

You won't get that

You might get it on the internet.

Gives you a chance to run away.

Detective O'Neil?

It's Paul Greynor.

Yeah. I want you to do it.

I'd like you to release

the information.

Good evening.

GARDA have revealed new details on the

assult that took place on the 3rd of july.

This report from Ken O'Shea.

At 12:
40 am on Saturday, a young man was

walking on Vexford street in the city centre

In the direction of Rathmayer,

when he was approached by two men

According to GARDA he was subjected to a totally

unprovoked attack where he was beaten and dragged up an alley

Where he suffered a further violent assault.

This was a particularly vicious

attack which was entirely unprovoked.

The victim was taken up a

laneway where he was severly beaten..

.. before his assailants used

a knife to castrate him.

This is not your average

mugging or alcohol-fueled fight.

It was a cruel and savage act of violence.

Which you can appreciate,

has left the victim devastated.

GARDA has released this

CC-TV footage of the attackers.

GARDA are appealing to the public

to reveal any information...

Paul?

Paul, please

open the door.

I saw the news.

That's healed nicely.

Keep it clean and

let the air out of it.

The ringing in your

ears is Tinnitus.

There's nothing

I can do for it.

But hopefully it

will ease, given time.

And for your taste and smell..

.. well I can't guarantee anything.

Brain injuries are very complicated.

But don't.. worry

about it just yet.

I'm putting you on these;

Andrial.

They'll replace the testosteron

your body would have produced before the..

...assault.

If you notice any side-effects,

come back to me immediately.

And as for sex..

You'll be capable of erections..

.. You'll be also be able to ejaculate,

there just won't be any sperm.

Once we've established

the correct dose of Andrial..

..your libido should stabilize.

Many people with testicular cancer..

..who have been through castration,
