This marks the third time the trial has been put on pause since it started. The next court date is rescheduled to October 19th.

The accused men that should have been in court but were absent were Owen Ormsby and Andre Golding, whose situation was explained to chief Justice Sykes.

Judge Sykes was told that the men had to be tested after the virus was detected in the same area where the men were being remanded.

The results returned positive for both men causing a pause to the proceedings.
