Man Accused Of Murdering Aussie DJ Remains In Custody After Bail Denied

The trial continues later this month

The man accused of murdering Byron Bay DJ Chris Bradley will remain in custody following a successful bid from the prosecution.

As ABC reports, the accused, dual UK-Australian Javen O'Neill, will remain behind bars after Justice David Davies approved a detention application.

The prosecution’s successful bid was lodged after the NSW Supreme Court set a $400,000 surety bond last week.

O'Neill was arrested and charged a week ago following an alleged altercation with Bradley at a Christmas party in Byron Bay.

It is reported that O'Neill struck Bradley in the head multiple times before he fell to the ground and died.

Proceedings will resume at Lismore Local Court on 16 January.
