#MH17 Case resumes

#MH17 Judge: Defence requests for CVs in conjunction with Almaz Antey reports. Court sees no reason to do this. Investigating judge will be questioning AA witness so no need.

#MH17 Judge: Court sees no need to send database of information from DSB to be sent to Almaz Antey. Investigating judge may consider it necessary for AA to visit wreckage.

#MH17 Judge: Defence asked Mr Biedermann to come to wreckage. Defence only recently started to do its part in this. Defence has made no concrete requests re pieces of wreckage not included in reconstruction.

#MH17 Judge: Photos not provided to defence as they include pictures of victims. These photos not included in case file. Court instructs DSB to see what photos are available not yet provided to defence & if they can be provided.

#MH17 Judge: Re conversations including Pulatov. One of them no longer ascribed to him. Pulatov says he can't remember which of 14 conversations were his. Therefore, Court gives Pulatov 14 days to confirm 5 of conversations are genuine.

#MH17 Judge: Re filing of relative claims. Timetable can't be ascertained until after examination of wreckage by defence. Probable that defence won't just want to examine reconstruction but other parts (including left wing).

#MH17 Judge: Defence should make preparations for inspection of wreckage.

#MH17 Judge: Re Strela10 - defence wants report. Court recalls Dubinsky will be interviewed and he can be asked about Strela10. Request for report on Strela10 denied.

#MH17 Judge: Court doesn't see necessity further investigation of radar detection devices as Ukraine has repeatedly denied these requests.

#MH17 Judge: Court considers there is already plenty of information in the case file about reliability of key witness. Defence has not explained exactly why the witness might be unreliable so no calling of witnesses or further investigation of reliability of witness.

End of court hearing.
