A judge has ordered the arrest of two teenage sisters after they failed to turn up to court on charges stemming from a garda investigation into thefts from vulnerable adults in Dublin.

The pair, aged 16 and 17, who cannot be named because they are minors, were ordered in January to stay away from people with intellectual disabilities as a specific condition of bail.
