A second witness has told a jury that a teenage accused was "brandishing" and "waving" a knife during an argument outside a house party in Cork City where 20-year-old college student Cameron Blair was murdered.

Under cross-examination for a second day at the Central Criminal Court, Darren O'Leary, who hosted the pre-drinks party in his rented accommodation in Cork City, insisted to the accused's defence counsel that he had seen the knife "with my own eyes" and if the barrister "said differently" then that was "a lie".
