'A British taxi driver has used a voice recording app on his phone to prove a female passenger lied about him raping her at knife-point in his cab.
Astria Berwick was jailed for 16 months in Nottingham Crown Court yesterday after admitting to perverting the course of justice by wrongly accusing Mohammed Asif of rape on February 20, the Telegraph reports.
The court heard the CCTV in Mr Asif’s car was broken on the day of the alleged attack so he switched on the app as a makeshift replacement.
...
"I keep thinking, 'I just dropped her off, she was just a normal passenger, why has she done that?’," he said.'
