A total of 22 arrests have been made by Gardaí in the response to protests held across Dublin city centre on Thursday by both sides of the divisive immigration debate.
Of those detained, sixteen people have been charged with various offences including assault, criminal damage and possession of a knife.
Gardaí have said most of the charges relate to public order offences.
One man had already appeared before court by Friday afternoon with other individual appearances to be scheduled over the coming weeks.
Gardaí said six people will be “dealt with under the adult caution scheme”.
Officers mounted an operation to break up a sit-down demonstration on O’Connell Bridge in the heart of the city where several anti-immigration protesters forcibly removed amid angry scuffles.
The incident culminating in an afternoon of disruption as anti-immigration demonstrators and anti-racism activists staged rival events to highlight their respective causes.
Gardaí had been deployed to potential hotspots between the demonstrations to ensure rival protesters were kept apart, with Garda public order units deployed to the scene.
A number of protesters were removed and placed in Garda vans amid angry scenes.
