Protester accused of punching police horse refusing COVID test in jail

A man accused of punching a police horse during Sydney's anti-lockdown protest will remain behind bars after a court heard he is refusing to take a COVID-19 test in prison.

Kristian Pulkownik was set to appear via video link at Central Local Court this morning charged with four offences, including animal cruelty, unlawful assembly and affray.

But magistrate Mark Richardson told the court Mr Pulkownik couldn't be brought from his cell as he had refused to undergo a COVID-19 test since his arrest at Saturday's protest.

For now, he remains in custody at Parklea Correctional Centre.

Doesn't get Covid.

You've been very quiet for the last six-seventeen years! G'day.
