HAMILTON - The often delayed case of a man charged with murder in two HIV-related deaths has been further postponed until Friday in Hamilton.
Johnson Aziga has pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder and 11 counts of aggravated sexual assault.
The Crown wrapped its case two months ago and the defence was granted a delay to allow an expert witness time to complete his report.
The defence was to begin presenting its case Tuesday, but while the report was ready, the judge told the jury the opening remarks would not go ahead.
Instead, that will happen on Friday.
The Crown alleges the 52-year-old man had unprotected sex with several partners without telling them he was infected with the virus that causes AIDS.
Seven women became infected and two died of related illnesses.
