Two Ukrainian men accused of smuggling eight eastern-Europeans into Canada aboard a sailboat have asked for a jury trial in "Nova Scotia Supreme Court".
A preliminary-inquiry will begin October 13th in Shelburne for Mykola Tyshkivskyy and Vasyl Aksenin.
They are charged with helping people without proper documentation to enter Canada and have been remanded in custody until their October court-appearance.
Both men had earlier been denied bail.
The accused were arrested June 19th after a 13-metre sailboat was intercepted off Shelburne and escorted to the Shelburne Yacht Club.
