Pat Hickey lawyers seek house arrest for three-month trial wait
Lawyers for embattled Olympic Council of Ireland official Pat Hickey have urged Brazilian authorities to transfer him from the notorious Bangu prison to house arrest because he is facing a wait of up to three months to be either charged or freed
Local solicitor Simone Kamenetz made the call as she lodged a second bail request for the 71-year-old OCI president, who is at the centre of multi-million euro ticket-touting scandal claims.
