Dead woman's sister 'frightened' after accused came to stay

The sister of a Jamaican woman who was allegedly beaten to death with a lump hammer has told a murder trial jury that she was frightened after the accused came to stay about a week before the killing.

Mrs Nicola Curtis was giving evidence in the trial of her sister’s husband Goodwill Uduchukwu (aged 32) with a previous address at Royal Canal View, Royal Canal Bank, Phibsboro who denies murdering Natasha Gray (aged 25) at the same address on February 18, 2003.
