A Saint John man convicted of stabbing his two sons to death last year is no longer facing additional charges.

Roman Kamyshnyy was scheduled to appear in provincial court Tuesday on two counts of violating an order to have no contact with the boys’ mother, his ex-wife, who cannot be named because of a publication ban.

But court records show Crown prosecutor Joshua Adams withdrew those charges on Aug. 19 before Judge Andrew Palmer.

No explanation is provided in the documents.

Kamyshnyy, 46, was sentenced the week prior to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years after a jury found him guilty in June of two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of the boys, aged 10 and 17.
