Salmon pleads not guilty, matter set down for hearing

The case of Geoff Salmon, director of Carenne Support who is facing the Bathurst Local Court on charges from an alleged incident during a protest in December where he is accused of attacking whistleblower Brian Carter who was driving a protest vehicle will return to court for hearing on 7 September 2010.

Mr Salmon faces charges of entering a vehicle unlawfully and obstructing traffic arising from the alleged attempted carjacking. Mr Salmon's solicitor told the court yesterday that he would be maintaining his plea of not guilty and would defend the charges.
