The jury in Ian Bailey’s civil action for damages over the conduct of the Garda inquiry into the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier are due back in court tomorrow after legal issues in the case are addressed.

Marie Farrell has denied she was present at any conversation where a garda allegedly told her husband of having a mark on his stomach which occasionally bled.

Journalist Ian Bailey has denied before the High Court he asked another man whether he knew about "the murder in Schull" before telling him, with a smirk: "That was me".

Ian Bailey has told the High Court he experienced a “growing sense” that “something was going on” and he was “chosen to be targeted” when hair and other samples were taken from him.
