A man accused of burgling Gisborne’s Zambrero Restaurant twice in one night and twice burgling a beauty business a few days earlier, is on bail again.
After being arrested for the alleged offences in October, Aidan Wesches, 40, was initially granted simple bail. However, he breached it and was remanded
into custody.
The issue was revisited on Monday in Gisborne District Court and Judge Warren Cathcart granted Wesches electronically-monitored bail.
The case is on hold while the court waits for specialist health reports for Wesches, who is understood to have significant mental health and cognitive impairments.
Bail conditions imposed by the judge permit Wesches to leave his house for exercise for up to two hours daily but only if accompanied by one of two authorised supervisors.
