A man accused of beheading his wife at the Muslim-American television station they founded is likely to pursue a psychiatric defence in the murder case.
Muzzammil Hassan is scheduled to be tried in January for the killing of Aasiya Hassan at the offices of Bridges TV in the Buffalo suburb of Orchard Park.
During a pretrial hearing in Erie County Court, attorney James Harrington said a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Aasiya's estate is holding up psychiatric testing.
