Large volume of evidence delays Dr Shine's indecent assault case

The State has been given extra time to complete a book of evidence in the case of a retired consultant surgeon who denies indecently assaulting 16 young males over a 26-year period.
Dr Michael Shine (aged 80), who has an address at Wellington Road, in Dublin 4, was charged in July with 25 counts of indecent assault which allegedly occurred from 1964 until 1990, at Our Lady's Hospital in Drogheda, Co. Louth and at a clinic in the same county.
