Man denies murdering neighbour | |
(about 7 hours later) | |
A 42-year-old man has been in court charged with the murder of a man near Belfast city centre last Friday. | |
The court was told John Crolly, of Hartington Court, who has denied the murder, regretted the victim's death because he was a friend. | |
Daniel Whyte, 59, and originally from Bangor in County Down died from a stab wound in a flat in Hartington Court. | |
A police officer told the court a state pathologist concluded the victim died in a "homicidal attack". | |
The pathologist believed the injury "could not possibly have been committed by a self-inflicted wound", the detective sergeant added. | |
"We are aware Mr Crolly was in the property at the time when the incident occurred. There were only two people in the property," the officer added. | |
Mr Crolly, who appeared at Belfast Magistrates Court in a police forensic suit, was remanded in custody. | |
The defendant's solicitor told the court his client denied the charges and would be applying for high court bail "in due course". |
