(CNN) A 38-year-old woman was arrested on arrival in Dublin Sunday and has been identified by Ireland's Justice Minister as a former soldier in Ireland's army, who told CNN in March that she had traveled to Syria as an ISIS bride.

Irish Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan said in a statement that Lisa Smith had been deported from Turkey with her young daughter.

"On her arrival in Dublin, Lisa Smith was met by An Garda Síochána," Irish Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan said, using the Irish name for the national police force.

"This is a sensitive case and I want to reassure people that all relevant state agencies are closely involved," Flanagan's statement continued.

The Irish government has been working to repatriate Smith since her case was first reported by CNN's Jomana Karadsheh in March.
