Nobbling Charge In £30,000 Civil Court Case

A Liverpool man, accused of communicating threats of violence to a witness in a £30,000 civil court case, appeared for the first time at Wimbledon Magistrates' Court.

David Hall, 47, of Wellington Street, Waterloo allegedly told Ryan Elliott: “You have no friends in Liverpool, drop the case or it will be more than your car next time,” referring to paint-stripper being thrown on the vehicle and: “Last warning, drop the case.”

He gave no indication as to plea on one charge of intimidating a witness in civil proceedings on January 20 at Waterloo Business Centre, Southwark, namely verbally threatened Mr. Elliott knowing he was a witness in civil debt recovery proceedings, intending to cause the course of justice to be obstructed.

Hall was bailed to appear at Kingston-upon-Thames Crown Court on December 1 for a preliminary hearing.
