A man charged with two counts of child rape will have to face a retrial after a jury could not agree on a verdict yesterday.
The 12-member jury was divided 8 to 4 in the trial of Leslie Castello, who is charged with two counts of rape of a child under 16 years of age.
Castello was represented by attorney Folio Richards.
The trial was conducted by Justice Jo-Ann Barlow at the Sexual Offences Court.
