PS strongly denied the allegation. It was his case the complainant in fact made threats with the shotgun and the firearm discharged accidentally when his brother attempted to disarm him.
Following a trial lasting 11 days, the jury returned verdicts of not guilty in relation to all counts.
PS was represented by Kevin Williams at out City of London Office, and by Lee Sergent of Garden Court Chambers at trial.
