A woman who had a "fling" with murder accused Thomas Cashman said claims her boyfriend owed him £25,000 were "absolutely ridiculous".
The "key witness" has given evidence claiming that Cashman turned up at her bedside without warning on the night nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel was killed, asking for a "pair of pants".
The schoolgirl died after a bullet passed through the front door of her family home on Kingsheath Avenue, Dovecot, then through the right hand of her mum, Cheryl Korbel, before striking her in the chest. A jury has heard the gunman was chasing 36-year-old Joseph Nee, who barged into the Korbel home while fleeing for his life, at around 10pm on August 22 last year.
