Publication Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2013


A verdict is expected today in the trial of the Island’s Attorney General.

Stephen Harding is charged with committing acts against public justice and perjury.

The 52-year-old Glen Vine man denies the charges.

A seven strong jury has been deliberating since Wednesday – yesterday court was adjourned after it was unable to reach a decision by a lunchtime cut off point.

Mr Harding will appear before Deemster Birkett this morning.
