O'Gorman murder-accused unable to attend court today, seeks garda recordings

An Italian man accused of the murder of well known pro-life campaigner and religious writer Tom O'Gorman at his north Dublin home could not come to court today.
Judge Victor Blake further remanded him in his absence after he was told that 34-year-old Saverio Bellante would not be present for his hearing at Cloverhill District Court. He was furnished with a letter from Dr Paul O'Connell at the Central Mental Hospital and adjourned the case for two weeks, until January 31, while gardaí are preparing their investigation file.
