A man accused of murdering his four-year-old stepson has told a jury the boy's mother prevented him calling an ambulance after her son fell.
Daniel Pelka died in Coventry on 3 March 2012 from severe head injuries.
Mariusz Krezolek, told Birmingham Crown Court Magdelena Luczak had said social services would notice bruises on the boy and threatened him when he suggested calling 999.
Mr Krezolek,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 34,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Ms Luczak, 27, deny murdering Daniel.
The pair, who are originally from Poland, have admitted child cruelty but deny murder and causing or allowing Daniel's death.
Giving evidence through a Polish interpreter, Mr Krezolek told the court that Daniel had fallen accidentally three times in the kitchen and hallway of their Coventry home on 1 March.
Mr Krezolek told the court how, after Daniel had fallen, Ms Luczak took him upstairs for a bath.
He told the jury: "She undressed Daniel. When she started picking up his clothes, now I know this is the point at which he lost consciousness... I immediately said to Magda, 'Daniel fell down awkwardly, it's certainly not normal'."
