HIV case jury ‘finished for week’

The jury in the case of a hairdresser accused of trying to infect his male lovers with HIV has finished its deliberations for the week.

The panel has been discussing the case of Daryll Rowe at Lewes Crown Court since Wednesday afternoon. He faces ten charges. For the past six weeks the 27-year-old, originally from Edinburgh, has been on trial after denying allegations that he tried to infect ten men he met on gay dating app Grindr by having unprotected sex or by tampering with condoms.
