Strict bail conditions were set at Portlaoise District Court on Thursday for a man facing a charge under the Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Act.
Jiri Suchanek was arrested earlier this month after over €1 milllon in cash was found in the truck he was allegedly driving.
The 45-year old was arrested on January 8 on the M7 in Co Kildare.
Defence Solicitor Josephine Fitzpatrick noted that Mr Suchanek was entitled to the presumption of innocence.
She noted that he had no previous convictions. His family were not working and they are dependent on him for income.
