A trainee barrister who was allegedly caught driving a car bomb towards Northern Ireland in a suspected New IRA operation spent time in Syria, her lawyer said.
Isobella Perrie Sullivan, 25, was arrested after Irish police said they made an 'extremely significant seizure' of a device on Wednesday.
The force said the device, which was made from military-grade plastic, could have caused significant damage.
It is understood to be the most sophisticated bomb seized by police since the Troubles.
A man in his 40s was also arrested in the major investigation, with Irish news outlets reporting that the man was a suspected member of the New IRA's Dublin branch.
In an intelligence-led swoop, the Garda's Special Detective Unit stopped the vehicle in transit near the Irish border on Wednesday afternoon on the N2 south of Carrickmacross, County Monaghan.
It has now emerged her solicitor Mr Gavin Booth told the court she was a previous member of a 'political group' and had spent some time in Syria.
The commissioner confirmed the operation relied on intelligence. 'Obviously, this was not a random stop,' he said.

>>she was a previous member of a ‘political group’ and had spent some time in Syria.
How, exactly, did she expect to pass the background checks that are supposed to ensure thst barristers are “fit and proper” persons?
The correct plural of the Irish National Police is “Gardai”, not Garda.
Sorry, pet peeve.

She looks ‘mature’ for 25. I would have guessed 35 or more from that picture.
The IRA should turn their attention to the muzzies. Put their hate to good use.
The UK government under Labour is the greater threat to them right now.
The IRA are commies and pro-palestine. They are on the muzzie’s side.
The New IRA is tied to Saoradh, a socialist party that supports the Palestinian cause. They are linked to a Scottish Palestinian activist named Issam Hijjawi, with support from the British branch of the Revolutionary Communist Party.
Interesting. What will the OrA do? Maintain ties with Sinn Fein and their garbage socialist anti-Irish pro immigration goals, or are they getting sick of the UK government sending endless waves of turd world trash to displace the natives?
Another of the brainwashed tribe. Didn’t notice any nose rings or neck tattoos in that picture, though she’s pretty covered up I should say.
That photo is clearly from her university graduation.
IRA-Sinn Fein have been in bed with Palestinian terrorists since the 1960s.
The Irish government doesn’t need any help from the UK government when it comes to importing trash. And, the open border between the UK and the Republic means that trash is free to travel in either direction, so the UK gets their gypsy trash in addition to the trash from the third world.
The number of uncivil losers in the world is often overwhelming.
Marty Cantor-”Then will you think? You tell O’Neil that you’re looking for a girl, he gives you the pictures of a girl. He obliges you to get you off his back, and you believe him?”
Jack Ryan- “I didn’t tell him I was looking for a girl, Marty.”
I can only hope that this will not bring her training sessions to an end.
