A bail application by high profile republican Colin Duffy was adjourned for a second time yesterday over police concerns about checking on his whereabouts if he was released.
Duffy (41), from Lurgan, has been in custody since March accused of murdering two soldiers shot by the Real IRA outside Massereene Army barracks.
His first bail application in the High Court last Tuesday was adjourned because a soil analysis report was not available.
The hearing was adjourned until yesterday when Duffy’s lawyer said that three addresses in the Lurgan area had been furnished to police but the defence had been informed that the locality would impose great difficulties on officers complying with proper bail checks.
Lord Justice Coghlin adjourned the application until next Friday.

Colin has been in custody since March. 
His first bail application in the High Court last Tuesday was adjourned because a soil analysis report was not available. The hearing had been due to be conducted in the High Court via video link with Maghaberry Prison.
A defence lawyer applied for an adjournment, saying he had expected a report on soil analysis to have been made available before the hearing began.
“Unfortunately, although the report will be finished today I have no oral indication of its finding,” he said.
He said police had been given an alternative address in the event of bail being granted.
The judge agreed to adjourn the application until Friday 30th October.
On Friday members of Colin's family and friends were in court only to hear once again that Colin's bail application had been adjourned for the second time. Lord justice Coghlin adjourned the application until next Friday 6th November after Colin's lawyer said that "three addresses in the Lurgan area had been furnished to the police but the defense had been informed that the locality would impose great difficulties on officers complying with proper bail checks."
