A United Kingdom court has adjourned the pre-trial hearing of Nigerian dancer Iweh Pascal Odinaka, aka Poco Lee, to February 2027 after he failed to enter a plea
Snaresbrook Crown Court fixed February 8, 2027, for the plea and trial preparation hearing.
Poco Lee is expected to enter his plea at the hearing, indicating whether he is guilty or not guilty of the charges against him.
The case came up on Tuesday, September 15, but the dancer did not appear in court because the charge sheet was not available. As a result, he did not enter a plea.
The trial has also been scheduled for March 8, 2027.
Snaresbrook Crown Court had earlier confirmed that Poco Lee was granted bail on September 11, following his first appearance before the court.
The court had initially scheduled the plea and trial preparation hearing for September 15, but the unavailability of the charge sheet meant the matter could not proceed as planned.
Some Nigerians were also present at the court in support of the entertainer, with the gallery reportedly filled to capacity and some people waiting outside.
