The Director of Public Prosecutions directed summary disposal of the case at District Court level.
In November, the defence offered a proposal to be considered by the prosecution, and the case was adjourned until yesterday/today for progress. “Unfortunately, the defendant is indisposed today, and we have a letter from his general practitioner, which he attended this morning. He has a likely diagnosis of influenza and is unable to attend court,” counsel said.
Mr Staunton also reminded the judge that he had kindly adjourned the case in November after the defence made its proposal to the prosecution.
