Bulletin: David Eastman; Australia; New development: Court told that police are planning to fly to Holland so forensic experts can test botanical material related to the case; Canberra Times;

"Police are yet to fly to Holland to test botanical evidence potentially linked to the murder of Colin Winchester, prompting claims that prosecutors have still not put their full case to David Eastman. Eastman is awaiting retrial for the alleged shooting murder of Assistant Federal Police Commissioner outside his home in 1989. He has launched a stay application to prevent the second trial from going ahead, arguing it cannot be conducted fairly. That stay application was due to begin on Monday, but was pushed back after Eastman's counsel, Christopher Boyce, SC, was diagnosed with a serious medical issue that rendered him unable to take any further part. The removal of Acting Justice Anthony Whealy has also delayed the case, and prompted a search for a new judge to sit on the stay application. Eastman's matter came back before the ACT Supreme Court and Registrar Annie Glover on Thursday. The court heard that police are planning to fly to Holland so forensic experts can test botanical material linked to the case."
