The jury in Ched Evans's retrial for rape retires to consider its verdict.

The jury at Ched Evans's retrial for rape has retired to consider its verdict at Cardiff Crown Court.

The 27-year-old was convicted of rape in April 2012 and spent two-and-half years in prison, before his original conviction was quashed through appeal in April.

Evans has always denied raping a then-19-year-old girl at a Welsh hotel in May 2011, insisting that he had had consensual sex after a night out in Rhuddlan, Denbighshire.

After a two-week retrial, Justice Nicola Davies told jurors: "Your decision must be made calmly, objectively and without emotion.

"You are not here to judge the morals of any person in this case and this includes the complainant and the defendant."

Evans joined League One outfit Chesterfield in June and has scored four goals in seven league appearances to date.
