Pat Hickey's Court Appearance Yet To Be Confirmed
It's unclear whether Pat Hickey will appear in court in Rio later today.
The president of the Olympic Council of Ireland is facing charges relating to ticket touting at this year's games.
Mr Hickey has his passport confiscated and is currently being held at Bangu prison following his arrest last week.
The Irish Independent claims that Mr Hickey has a second passport that is with his lawyers - however the Department of Foreign Affairs claims there could be a number of reasons for the second ID.
Reporter with the Independent.ie Cathal McMahon, says Pat Hickey's court appearance still hasn't been confirmed:
