NATIONAL NEWS - The man standing trial for the rape and murder of Franziska Blochliger insists he did not kill the teenager.

The girl's body was discovered shortly after she went missing while jogging in Tokai forest last March.

The mother of Blochliger accompanied the teenager’s father for the first time to court as the trial started.

Howard Oliver faces charges of rape, assault and murder.

In his affidavit, Oliver has admitted he attacked Blochliger, who he says was strong and fought back.
