Richard Satchwell, whose wife Tina's remains were discovered underneath a stairwell in their home, will be tried in Dublin next year after his lawyers successfully applied for the case to be moved out of Cork.

Mr Justice Paul McDermott agreed to the application which was made last month by lawyers acting for Mr Satchwell. The trial remains scheduled for April 28, despite the change of venue.
