Court gives Koh Tao defence access to DNA evidence

The provincial court in Koh Samui has given defence lawyers for two Myanmar workers accused of murdering two British tourists on Koh Tao access to evidence for DNA testing, a defence attorney said Friday.

The defence team Win Zaw Htun and Zaw Lin, both aged 22, says police analyses of DNA samples found at the scene are the only evidence tying them to the murders of Hannah Witheridge, 23, and David Miller, 24, Sept 15, making retesting of the material crucial.
