Fury at Michaela sex life questions

Attempts to explore the sex life of murdered honeymooner Michaela McAreavey and her husband provoked fierce clashes at the trial of two men accused of the crime.

A defence lawyer’s bid to question a police officer about a sex manual found in the Mauritius hotel room where the daughter of Gaelic football boss Mickey Harte was strangled was met with fury by the prosecution, and the case was adjourned for a period.

Principal state counsel Mehdi Manrakhan reacted angrily when Sanjeev Teeluckdharry, representing accused Avinash Treebhoowoon, asked the officer if the book, called The Ultimate Sex Guide, contained material of a violent nature.
