Byron Bay mother Sara Connor is hoping that the truth will come out when her boyfriend David Taylor is called to testify in her trial in coming weeks.
Connor told reporters that she expected her boyfriend to tell the court that she was not involved in the murder of death of Bali police officer Wayan Sudarsa on a Kuta beach in the early hours of August 17 last year.
Connor was speaking after her murder trial in the Denpasar District Court was adjourned on Tuesday after none of the prosecution’s witnesses called to testify turned up.
The judges will allow one more chance next week for them to appear before calling Taylor to testify in Connor’s trial.
Taylor’s own murder trial is due back in court today (Wednesday).
‘I want to believe that the judges will be fair and they will judge by the facts and by the evidence and not by other influence and other pressures,’ Connor said on the sidelines of her trial.
She said the Indonesian legal system was different to what she is used to.
‘I really hope the Judges will take the right decision, based on the fact and evidence. I am sure they realise that I am innocent,’ Connor said.
Connor said that the truth of what happened would be revealed fully when her boyfriend, David Taylor, is called to testify in her trial in the coming weeks.
‘I still love him. I believe he is going to tell the truth … I wasn’t even there. I believe he is going to tell the truth,’ Connor said.
‘That is how the truth will come out,’ she said of Taylor’s upcoming evidence.
‘At last it will come out in the end that I only separated them and Dave only defended himself.’
