Summary
A jury of twelve was sworn in on 27 October 2022 to hear the murder trial of a 16‑year‑old teenage boy accused of killing Urantsetseg Tserendorj, a mother of two, on 29 January 2021. The alleged offence occurred on a walkway between George's Dock and Custom House Quay in Dublin 1, where Ms Tserendorj was walking home from work. The defendant, who cannot be named because he is a minor, pleaded not guilty. Judge Karen O'Connor informed the jury that the case involves a juvenile who was 14 at the time of the alleged offence and is now 16, turning 17 soon. She warned the jury to avoid discussing the case over the weekend, to refrain from researching the accused or the case, and to stay away from internet or social media. The trial will commence next Tuesday, 1 November, before Mr Justice Tony Hunt and is expected to last about a week.
