A MAN who allegedly stabbed another man eight times at a house in Thornton Heath has pleaded not guilty to attempted murder.
Police were called to Reservoir Close on April 21 and found Barrington Junior Smith, 25, had suffered multiple stab wounds.
Recardo Pollack, 27, was arrested and charged with attempted murder and wounding with intent.
He appeared at Croydon Crown Court today (Tuesday) and pleaded not guilty to both counts.
The court heard that three knives had been recovered from the scene and had been sent away for forensic examination.
Wearing a green shirt and jeans, Pollack, of Silverdale, Sydenham, spoke only to confirm his name and enter a plea.
During the short hearing he waved to friends and family who were sitting in the public gallery.
Judge Jeremy Gold QC set a trial date for October 7 at Croydon Crown Court.
