A man accused of trying to kill his brother in an alleged stabbing on Ramsgate seafront appeared at Maidstone Crown Court today.

Marek Pietras was not asked to enter a plea to attempted murder or an alternative charge of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.

Rafal Pietras was taken to a London hospital with serious injuries after he was allegedly attacked at a Travelodge hotel in Royal Parade on February 26.

Requesting an adjournment, Daniel Stevenson asked that bodyworn footage from police officers be produced at the next hearing.

Adjourning to April 12, Judge Jeremy Carey said: "This is a very serious allegation."

Pietras, a 32-year-old from Poland who gave an address in Germany, was remanded in custody.
