Isla Bell: Judge reveals new details into police investigation

New details have been revealed in court, shedding light on why a murder charge against the man last seen with Brunswick teenager Isla Bell was dropped.

The details came out during a judgement regarding whether Marat Ganiev would still have to face the remaining lesser charge — attempting to pervert the course of justice — relating to his actions after Ms Bell’s death.

Kristian Silva returns to the pod to break down the judgement with Stephen Stockwell.
