He also denied on a number of occasions that he had possession of a coat which Noah was wearing on the day of his disappearance, and which has never been found.<\/p>\n
The witness responded to questions about Noah’s phone which was found in a play park along the route of Noah’s final journey in north Belfast.<\/p>\n
The barrister explained that the phone subsequently contained what’s understood to be “an accidental photo” of part of a hand.<\/p>\n
The photo was taken within an hour of Noah’s disappearance.<\/p>\n
The family barrister asked: “Is that your hand?”<\/p>\n
Daryl Paul replied: “No, it’s not my hand.”<\/p>\n
The lawyer explained that Noah’s mother Fiona made numerous efforts to ring her son in the hour after his last sighting to check on his whereabouts, as well as sending a text message.<\/p>\n
If someone has answered the phone, the barrister said, Fiona Donohoe “would have known that her boy was in trouble”.<\/p>\n
She then asked Paul if he had the phone at that time.<\/p>\n
He replied: “No, I didn’t.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"He also denied on a number of occasions that he had possession of a coat which Noah was…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":456615,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[59,57,58,50,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-554228","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-kingdom","tag-gb","tag-great-britain","tag-greatbritain","tag-news","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554228","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=554228"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/554228\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/456615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=554228"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=554228"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=554228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
