HONG KONG (Reuters) - The pre-trial hearing for a British banker, accused of murdering two women in Hong Kong last November, was adjourned for five weeks on Thursday after the prosecution requested for more time to build its case.

Prosecution lawyers asked for the extra time to serve further documents for their case against 30-year-old former Bank of America employee Rurik Jutting.
