Simon Gittany has bail revoked Simon Gittany's girlfriend Rachelle Louise, left, leaving court with his family. Murder accused Simon Gittany has been refused bail and will remain in custody until a judge decides his fate. Mr Gittany, 40, is accused of killing former ballerina Lisa Cecilia Harnum, 30, by throwing her off the balcony of a Sydney high-rise apartment in July 2011. Mr Gittany's new girlfriend, Rachelle Louise, 24, put her hands over her face and wiped tears from her cheeks as she watched Corrective Services take Mr Gittany from the NSW Supreme Court on Tuesday. The accused: Simon Gittany. Ms Louise sat in the public gallery for the first time during the trial and used a tissue to blow her nose and dab her eyes before she started furiously texting on her mobile phone. The court heard Ms Louise had spent every day of the case supporting Mr Gittany outside the courtroom. Mr Gittany has been on bail during his trial and was taken into custody just moments after his defence team concluded their case. Lisa Harnum: her former boyfriend is on trial over her death. Justice Lucy McCallum revoked Mr Gittany's bail after the Crown asked her to do so for the third time. "What the Bail Act says is that I am not to grant bail unless satisfied of exceptional circumstances," Justice McCallum said. Justice McCallum said she had allowed the accused to remain on bail so he could assist his legal team throughout the duration of the defence case. Now that it had concluded she saw no "exceptional circumstances" for Mr Gittany to remain on bail. She said the refusal of bail had nothing to do with the strength of the defence or prosecution case. Mr Gittany's barrister, Philip Strickland, SC, argued he needed to have access to his client before he made his final submissions on Wednesday. Again, Justice McCallum reiterated that the test for "exceptional circumstances" under the Bail Act had not been met. After more than three weeks of evidence, both the prosecution and defence have finished presenting their cases. Senior Crown prosecutor Mark Tedeschi, QC, and Mr Strickland are expected to make their closing addresses on Wednesday. Before Mr Gittany was remanded in custody he again took to the stand to answer questions about a hard drive he hid from police during their investigation. The hard drive was connected to security cameras in Mr Gittany's unit and possibly contained footage of Ms Harnum's final moments. Mr Gittany was in jail when he asked his brother to remove an external hard drive from the ceiling of his Sydney unit opposite Hyde Park. He told the court last Thursday that he hid the hard drive from police because he did not trust them. The accused said he had no idea where the hard drive was but the following day the hard drive in question was brought to court by an IT consultant who has done previous work for the Gittany family. Did you go and get the hard drive [on the day of Ms Harnum's death] and take it to your parent's place? "No that wasn't on my mind," Mr Gittany replied. Justice McCallum is expected to take a number of weeks to consider her decision once final submissions are made on Wednesday.
