Psychiatric reports filed in prison vandalism case

Fri, 14 Aug 2015

Psychiatric reports have been compiled in the case of a prisoner who's accused of destroying property at the Isle of Man Prison.

32-year-old Alistair Cowin appeared at Douglas Courthouse earlier this week via live video link where the court was told progress is being made.

He's charged with four counts of arson and two of common assault - all allegedly took place at the Jurby facility in January.

Cowin, who is currently serving a prison sentence for other matters, will next appear in court on Tuesday.
