Thursday, 4 February 2016 00:00

A Douglas man has denied burgling a site office at Billown Quarry after being charged with the offence almost three years later.

25-year-old Jamie Hall appeared at Douglas Courthouse this morning where he entered a not guilty plea to one charge of burglary from 2013.

Magistrates adjourned the matter until March 24th - the same day he's due to be committed to the Court of General Gaol Delivery on an unconnected charge.

A bail application was refused and Hall was further remanded at the Isle of Man Prison.
