A trial date has been set for a restaurant owner accused of killing a customer who died from an allergic reaction to peanuts served in a curry.

Paul Wilson, 38, suffered a severe anaphylactic shock in January 2014 after eating a takeaway from the Indian Garden in Easingwold, North Yorkshire.

Mohammed Zaman, 52, of Aylesham Court, Huntington, appeared at Teesside Crown Court earlier accused of manslaughter.

A trial date was set for 25 April and he was granted bail.

Mr Zaman, who has not entered a plea, also faces a charge of forging a food safety training certificate, an immigration offence relating to the employee who served the contaminated meal, and food safety offences.
