"Absolutely not so," Dr Harrisson replied.
"The rage of which Brenda Page was afraid came into effect," Mr Prentice said. "And you brutally murdered her."He told defence counsel Brian McConnachie he was never physically violent towards Brenda Page on any occasion.The trial at the High Court in Aberdeen continues next weekDr Harrisson said he was concerned about what he described as her "double life" of also starting to work as an escort.
He described a claim that he had phoned a friend the night before she was found dead and said he was going to kill her as "completely untrue".Charges of assault, breach of the peace and attempting to defeat the ends of justice were earlier withdrawn and the accused was acquitted.He lodged a special defence of alibi at the start of the case.
The trial, before Lord Richardson, was adjourned until Tuesday, when closing speeches from the Crown and then defence will be heard.
