McAreavey accused 'on telephone at time of killing'

A man accused of murdering honeymooner Michaela McAreavey in Mauritius has told a court he was making a telephone call at the time she died.

Testifying in his own defence, Sandip Moneea insisted he was on the phone to his sister at the time the prosecution contends the Co Tyrone teacher was strangled in her room at the luxury Legends Hotel last January.
