Defence lawyer David Elias KC said that the complainant's actions after the alleged attack showed that he did not rape her."He told you that as far as he was concerned she was happy and fine. Is the CCTV consistent with that? We say absolutely." He added that she made the claims after she "found herself in a bit of bother when a fuss was made when she was injured, had twigs in her hair and was crying. It's quite easy to see how matters have snowballed.Mr Elias added that Greenaway-Robbins claim that the victim had consented to give him oral sex was consistent with the mud found on her knees.
He added that Greenaway-Robbins and the defendant were in the park for between 40 and 50 minutes, which did not align with the victim's story.He was told by Judge Neil Bidder KC that he was free to go and could leave the dock.
