A HUMAN TRAFFICKING and prostitution trial has collapsed “due to unforeseen circumstances” but is expected to begin again before a new jury later this month.
Judge Patricia Ryan told the panel today that “due to unforeseen circumstances this case cannot proceed before yourselves and I am now going to discharge you. You are free to go”. Da Silva , of Cairn Hill View, Drumlish, Co Longford, has admitted 35 charges, including organising prostitution, facilitating the entry into the state of an illegal person and money laundering. She has denied a single charge of human trafficking in 2019.
