Defendant stuns court by asking if he could pull a cheque out of his bottom

A defendant stunned a court when he asked if he could pull a cheque out of his bottom.

Vet Maurice Kirk wanted to give the £7,500 to his sister to hire a lawyer. Judge Paul Thomas QC asked: "Where is it?"

Jurors tittered when the 64-year-old replied: "It's three inches up my rectum." The judge refused permission.

Kirk, of St Donat's, South Wales, is accused of owning an illegal machine gun. He denies the charge. The trial continues.
