A Bay of Plenty man accused of murdering another has pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Dallas Fraser Tihini Hohua, 57, appeared in the High Court in Tauranga today facing a charge of murder. The case is now expected to go to trial.
On October 24, the victim Lani Paul
was taken to Whakatane Hospital with stab wounds but did not survive his injuries.
Hohua was arrested a week later, following a police investigation into Paul's death.
Hohua appeared in Whakatane District Court on November 2 and was remanded in custody.
