The former athlete has accused Jones of indecently assaulting him on nine occasions with unwanted kisses and groping incidents as a teenager. He initially told the court Jones had touched his groin and then dozed off before returning for another touch, but admitted it had been a false memory on Thursday. Ms Bashir asked. The athlete rejected suggestions from Ms Bashir that he tried to paint Jones in a certain light or ‘‘fit a schoolboy narrative of sexual touching’‘. Ms Bashir accused him of trying to assert Jones had an ulterior motive for making the payments and recasting them as ‘‘something sinister’‘.
