Panovski defence presents case
By Shawn Loughlin
The Citizen
The case of Boris Panovski has
continued in recent weeks, with the
prosecution wrapping up its case and
turning things over to the defence.
Panovski's lawyer, Christopher
Hicks, has urged members of the
jury to remember that there are two
sides to every story, as reported by
Jane Sims of the London Free Press.
Since the defence has begun
presenting its case, several witnesses
have been called to testify that they
saw a blue car driving around the
area on the day of the shooting.
While Panovski did have a
blue/green Toyota, the defence has
stated that several blue cars could
have been travelling the area that
day.
Panovski, 73, of Scarborough is
charged with the first-degree murder
of Don Frigo and the attempted
murder of Frigo's wife Eva Willer
Frigo.
According to the London Free
Press, Hicks told the jury that the
burden of proof is on the crown and
that the defence had evidence that
the jury needed to hear before
handing down its verdict.
Hicks has called several witnesses
who have challenged the crown's
ability to identify Panovski at the
scene. Willer Frigo said that she
hadn't seen Panovski since 2006 and
couldn't necessarily identify him as
the shooter that day.
Paul Dreossi, a Fanshawe College
art instructor who was at the Hullett
Marsh hunting that day, said he saw
the driver of the car and felt he was
of Eastern European descent.
Dreossi said he contacted the
police after seeing a photo of
Panovski on the London Free Press
website and felt he had seen him in
the car that day.
Speaking through an interpreter,
Panovski's sister, Petra Dojcinovska
told the jury that she invited
Panovski to visit her in Macedonia
in 2014.
She had not seen her brother since
2002, but she had health problems
and needed him to sign some
documents pertaining to a family
land inheritance.
She added that he arrived with
little warning and didn't call her
until he had already made it to
Macedonia.
Panovski's trip is crucial to the
Crown's case as the Crown has
alleged that he fled the country after
killing Frigo.
The case was scheduled to resume
again this week after court was
adjourned early due to a juror
battling an illness.
