THE woman who is accused of attacking alleged murder victim Guy Thomas with a glass told police she did not assault him, a jury heard.

Sara Kingston, 33,of Forester's Tower, Wood Farm and Peter Rous, 32, of Pegasus Road, Blackbird Leys, have denied murdering Mr Thomas, 41.

Mr Thomas was found dead at his flat in Pound Way, Cowley on Friday, February 10.

The defendants are alleged to have beaten him during a heavy drinking session the day before.

The court heard Mr Thomas had refused to go to hospital when paramedics visited his flat and treated wounds on his head.

In a statement, prepared with her solicitor and read out during the police interviews, Kingston said: "After the ambulance staff left Guy Thomas's Flat on the evening of Thursday, February 9, neither Peter nor myself moved any objects around or searched the flat.

"If I made any comment about Guy Thomas it would have been during the conversation with Peter walking away from the flat in Pound Way.

"I may have said to Peter 'oh my God should we leave him, he has lost so much blood, he could die.'"

Earlier the court heard an account from Samantha Carp of how Kingston and Rous had visited her and her mother Heidi Hill on Friday, February 10.

Miss Carp told the jury Rous and Kingston told her how Kingston attacked a man called Guy with a glass and Rous punched him.

In the statement to the police, which was read out in court, Miss Kingston said: "During the conversation I mentioned that on the night before Guy had fallen and hit his head."

Later in the statement she said: "I never assaulted Guy Thomas with a glass or any other object."

The trial continues.
