Marat Ganiev loses bid to halt Isla Bell case
Marat Ganiev, previously accused of killing 19-year-old Melbourne teenager Isla Bell, has failed in his legal bid to have his remaining case thrown out of court. Ganiev was initially charged with murder before charges were downgraded to manslaughter and then dropped entirely. He now faces charges of perverting the course of justice, which will proceed after the Supreme Court rejected his application to permanently halt the case.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
