Redknapp shouts his denial of tax evasion

Harry Redknapp fought back tears in court as he fiercely denied telling his tax evasion trial “a pack of lies”.

The football boss shouted from the witness box at prosecutor John Black: “You think I put my hand on the bible and told lies? That’s an insult, Mr Black, that’s an insult.”

Redknapp shook his head as Black ended his cross-examination at Southwark Crown Court in London, by saying: “I suggest you have been telling the court a pack of lies.”
