Soldier to face trial over friend's road death
At Craigavon Crown Court, 22-year-old Daniel Graham pleaded not guilty to a single count of causing the death of Alan Monteith by driving carelessly on the Carryduff Road in Ballynahinch on August 16 2013.
The charge arises as a result of a one-vehicle road traffic accident on the main road between Carryduff and Ballynahinch which caused fatal injuries to 32-year-old Mr Monteith.
