    The man accused of murdering Pauline Hanna at her Remuera home last April -- is her husband, Philip Polkinghorne

    The man accused of murdering Pauline Hanna at her Remuera home last April -- is her husband, Philip Polkinghorne


    The 69-year-old appeared in the Auckland District Court today.

    Wearing jeans and a black leather jacket, he pleaded not guilty through lawyer, Rachael Reed QC, and will be released on bail.

    Polkinghorne says he's shocked he's been charged.

    He says he won't comment further, but hopes the justice process will run its course and the 'truth will be known'.

    Polkinghorne retired after his wife's death and has moved out of their house.
