Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I will not discuss specific individual allegations in this House. It is very important that all allegations are taken seriously and fully investigated but it is also important that we remember that allegations are allegations and no matter what form of crime or violence is being alleged people do have a right to due process and to have their good name protected. I would encourage the Deputy not to hang anyone before he or she has had a fair trial-----
