PERJURY CHARGES
ARISING OUT OF DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS. HEARING IN CHRISTCHURCH. ' (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. Arising out of divorce proceedings taken by Anthony George Boutery in Christchurch on August 27, against his wife, Coral Pearl Bouterey, on grounds of adultery, Bouterey stood in the dock this morning facing two charges of suborning to perjury. Bouterey pleaded not guilty. The Crown Prosecutor, Mr A. W. Brown, said Bouterey was charged with procuring two men, Douglas William Dyer and Cyril Wilfred Stanley, to give false evidence in Courts. The jury’s task would be to decide whether the two men gave false evidence, and if so did it at Bouterey’s instigation. The evidence would be that Bouterey concocted a story with Dyer and Stanley to the effect that they attended parties aboard the launch Phyllis, at Napier, where on three occasions they saw Mrs Bouterey commit adultery. Later Dyer went to the police and said he had never been in Napier in his life and had never seen what he described in Court. Interviewed by the police,Stanley made similar admissions. Bouterey, in a statement to the police, denied the charges. Evidence on these lines is proceeding.
