The Australian man accused of murdering Irish woman Jill Meagher will stand trial on September 30th.

41-year-old Adrian Ernest Bayley appeared via video link from a Melbourne Prison for a brief hearing at Victoria Supreme Court last night.

He has pleaded guilty to raping the 29 year old radio worker, but denies a murder charge and two other counts of rape.
