Vancouver: A date for Inderjit Singh Reyat's perjury trial will be set Sept. 22.
Reyat was charged with perjury after his testimony in the trial of two men co-accused in the Air India case.
Ripudaman Singh Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri were acquitted of murder and conspiracy charges in the 1985 bombing of Air India Flight 182 that killed 329 people.
The indictment filed in B.C. Supreme Court against Reyat lists 27 times where he allegedly misled the court during his testimony in September 2003.
Reyat is currently serving a five-year sentence for manslaughter as part of a plea agreement for the deaths of those killed after the bomb exploded aboard the plane on June 23, 1985.
