Dubliner denies killing taxi driver in ‘one punch case’

A Dublin man has gone on trial for the manslaughter of a taxi driver in the city two years ago.

William Keegan, 27, of Pearse House, has pleaded not guilty to the unlawful killing of 41-year-old Moses Ayanwole in Dublin on Nov 23, 2011.

In his opening address to the jury, prosecution counsel Maurice Coffey said this is what legal practitioners call a “one punch case” and it was a “tragic” assault manslaughter case.
