    Malcolm Rewa insists he didn't rape or murder Susan Burdett

    Malcolm Rewa insists he didn't rape or murder Susan Burdett


    The convicted rapist has taken the witness stand at the High Court at Auckland to testify in his own defence at his third murder trial.

    65-year-old Rewa was convicted in 1998 of Susan Burdett's rape - but two juries that year were unable to decide whether he was also responsible for her death.

    Herald Court reporter, Sam Hurley, says Rewa claims they were in a secret, sexual relationship and they would take drugs together.

    Rewa says there is evidence that points to someone else for the murder of Burdett.
