Trial of man accused of murdering former partner to resume tomorrow

The trial of 35‑year‑old Vesel Jahiri, originally from Kosovo, will resume tomorrow after a brief pause. Jahiri is accused of murdering his former partner, Anna Finnegan, 26, at Allendale Glen, Clonsilla, Dublin 15, on 21 September 2012, and of assaulting Karl Finnegan at the same location and date. He has pleaded not guilty to both charges. Mr Justice Paul Coffey informed the jury that a matter would be dealt with in their absence, so they will not hear the case today.
