A jury is considering its verdict in the trial of a teenager who fatally stabbed Urantsetseg Tserendorj in Dublin’s International Financial Services Centre last year.The accused, who cannot be identified as he is a minor, pleaded not guilty to Ms Tserendorj’s murder but guilty to her manslaughter on January 29th, 2021. The State did not accept his plea.
Michael O’Higgins SC, for the accused, said that although his client was just 14 at the time of the killing, he had developed a drug habit and went out to steal money to buy drugs. “That is the only logical conclusion on a cold analysis of the facts,” he said. “The appropriate verdict is guilty of murder.”
