Eight men accused of engaging in a mass brawl at HMP Perth are expected to go on trial for the alleged offence in Perth later this year - as long as the city’s sheriff court can accommodate them all at the same time.
Four Dundee men - Terry Barr (32), of St Ninian’s Terrace, Scott Dolan (33), of Glenmoy Avenue, Richard Gibson (36), of Linfield Street and Daniel Blake (43), of Hepburn Street - have all denied taking part in a “large-scale stand-up fight” and committing a breach of the peace at HMP Perth on July 23, 2019.
Two Angus men - John Brand (29) of River Street, Brechin and Graham Soave (33), of Dundee Loan, Forfar - have also denied the charge as has Pavel Tomko (25), of Northwood Crescent, Nottingham and Dylan Ferguson (25), an inmate at HMP Low Moss.
