Cardinal George Pell's defence lawyer has accused a victim support group volunteer of making up allegations and trying to "pin" historical sex offences onto Australia's highest-ranked Catholic.
Pell faces multiple historical sex offence charges involving multiple complainants, and is fighting the charges at a committal hearing in Melbourne Magistrates Court.
The pre-trial hearing, which will determine if Pell stands trial, opened to the public on Wednesday afternoon after several days of closed court evidence from the complainants, as required by law.
