During the court proceedings, Ciliceva informed the court that he would like to reserve his right to counsel as he needed to make a few calls overseas to get funding for a lawyer.
Granting him time, Magistrate Savou informed him that given that his charge was an indictable offense, the matter would be transferred to the High Court.
In the meantime, Ciliceva will remain on remand; however, the court has given him 21 days to prepare his Alibi Notice.
The matter is adjourned to September 30.
