In the Northwest Territories, the man who was convicted of shooting and killing a police officer was in court today to appeal his life sentence.

Emrah Bulatci was convicted of first degree murder in the 2007 fatal shooting of Const. Christopher Worden.

Bulatci’s lawyer appealed the conviction Tuesday saying secretly recorded conversations that Bulacti had while in custody should not have been used as evidence during his trial.

The court of appeal heard arguments from Bulatci’s lawyer and the Crown.

The judges will be issuing a written decision the appeal at a later date.
