Accused in ex’s murder says cops made up confession

Kubert George, accused of murdering his former partner Patricia Rose four years ago, yesterday told a jury that police had fabricated a confession in the statement he gave to them about his last meeting with the woman.

After George, 66, led his defence in a sworn statement at the High Court yesterday, prosecutors Dhanika Singh and Konyo Thompson closed the state’s case and closing arguments were made by them and defence counsel Peter Hugh.
