Manslaughter accused: I know my own strength

A man who denies unlawfully killing another outside Sopranos, a Kilbarrack, Dublin, take-away, denied using a fist to hit the victim and said he knew himself enough to know he did not need to punch anyone.

"I know my size and strength, and I don’t need to punch anyone," Mr Liam Dunne (aged 39), Hazelburry Park, Clonee, Co Meath, who is accused of manslaughter, told gardaí when he was interviewed some days after the alleged unlawful killing.
