The defendant was charged with two counts of being a party to unregistered real estate trading under the Real Estate and Business Brokers Act.
Following the prosecution case, the defence raised the issue of the defendant's capacity to conduct his defence due to alleged mental disorder.
The court was required to determine whether the defendant was, on a balance of probabilities, unable to conduct his defence due to mental disorder.
The court found that the defendant was capable of conducting his defence and ordered the suspended proceeding to continue.
