The two teenagers deny murdering 14-year-old Ana Kriégel at an abandoned house in Lucan, Dublin.

The father said his son initially withheld the full truth because he was afraid and shocked, and feared the other accused boy.

He said his son was not capable of involvement and described him as afraid to say something during a visit to the park with gardaí.

The prosecution case had closed, while the first accused also denied aggravated sexual assault.
