A TOBAGO man convicted in 2023 of raping and buggering his daughter will face a new trial after the State conceded the trial judge erred at his judge-only trial.
The name of the accused cannot be published, to protect the victim's identity.
In an oral ruling, Justices of Appeal Gillian Lucky, Malcolm Holdip and Eleanor Donaldson-Honeywell allowed the man’s appeal, set aside his conviction and sentence, ordered a retrial and granted him $100,000 bail to cover all charges.
