Constable Taylor holds the position of Assistant Chief Minister, but the government announced last week that he had taken the decision to ‘step aside’ from his duties until the legal proceedings are concluded.

The decision was accepted by the Chief Minister, who described it as the “proper” thing to do.

The Constable was represented in Court this morning by Advocate George Pearce.

Legal Adviser Paul Lee asked the Court to adjourn the case until the 10 March when a date will be set for trial.

Relief Magistrate Nuno Santos-Costa was presiding.

Constable Taylor remains on conditional bail.
