Murder-accused denies 'painting victim as aggressor

Salah Adam, 21, died after being knifed to the neck in Old Trafford in May last year. Two men, Demari Rose, 20, and Xavaiour Wynter, 21, are both on trial at Manchester Crown Court accused of his murder. They deny the charge.

While giving evidence in his defence, Mr Rose has admitted being responsible for the fatal wound suffered by Mr Adam, but claims he was acting in selfdefence after Mr Adam attacked him with a sword.

Prosecutors allege that Mr Adam was knifed following a 'heated' dispute about an incident the night before, when about 15 young men including Mr Adam's younger brother had been arrested on suspicion of affray.
