Rape evidence 'faked', accused tells court
A Polish man accused of attempting to rape a Wexford woman two years ago has told a Central Criminal Court jury that the evidence against him had been "faked" and that a garda told him to plead guilty.
The 26-year-old man gave evidence in his own defence through an interpreter and agreed under cross-examination by prosecuting counsel, Ms Pauline Walley SC, that he told gardaí in the video recorded interview seen in court that he tried to rape the woman but was stopped by two men who pulled him off her.
