He also admitted possessing two knives with intent to commit assault occasioning actual bodily harm
A 51-year old man awaiting sentence for stabbing a doctor working in the Ulster Hospital was refused bail today.
From East Street in Newtownards, the Lithuanian national was charged with assaulting a doctor occasioning him actual bodily harm on December 3, 2021., and attempting to damage a set of double doors at the Ulster Hospital on the same date. Pointing out Griskevicius has been on remand since last December, the barrister asked Judge Geoffrey Miller KC to consider that the injury sustained to the doctor was minor.
He said: "Any person working in a hospital, whether they be a cleaner or a consultant surgeon, is entitled to protection."
