DPP appeals dismissal of McKeeva Bush indecent assault case
Three appeals court judges heard arguments from lawyers Tuesday on whether McKeeva Bush’s indecent assault trial last year should have been dismissed.
The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions is appealing the decision by Justice Stanley John to halt Bush’s Grand Court trial in February last year.
The judge initially dismissed four charges relating to alleged incidents between the former premier and two female civil servants, due to an abuse of process, he said. However, in a later written ruling, he admitted that he had made an error in stopping the entire case, stating he should only have dropped the charges relating to one of the women.
