Gang-Rape Accused: "She Was All Over Me"

A Heathrow Airport security guard accused of taking part in the gang-rape of a young woman he picked-up that night denied the claim today.

Tunisia-born Anouar Ben-Rejab, 36, of Tithe Barn Drive, Bray, Maidenhead allegedly raped the girl with two fellow-countrymen after she agreed to spend the night with him.

The twenty-five year-old Crawley office worker, who had downed wine and vodka before going to the town’s Bar Med nightclub (pictured), claims she shouted: “No, no, no,” when the others joined in.

Ben-Rejab and 31 year-old taxi driver Nizar Baccar, of Climping Road, Ifield, Crawley, West Sussex have both pleaded not guilty to raping her at a two-bedroom flat in nearby Fenchurch Street in the early hours of October 25, 2008.

Ben-Rejab, employed by BAA, alone has also pleaded not guilty to an additional count of rape and a charge of sexual assault on the same occasion.

A third suspect, Ahmed Farjallah – the flat’s occupier - jumped police bail before he could be charged and is still wanted.

Ben-Rejab told Croydon Crown Court the alleged victim immediately made a beeline for him when he arrived at the club and invited herself back to the flat.

“She made it plain she liked me from the start, she was touching and caressing me,” he told the jury. “She said: ‘I want you to f*** me. I want you inside me’.”

Baccar drove the couple, who were kissing on the back seat, to the flat.

“She was all over me again, touching my crotch. She was showing her cleavage as well. She was wearing a low top.

“When we got out of the car she unzipped my trousers and gave me a blow job in front of Mr. Baccar who said: ‘What the hell are you doing? This is a built up area’.”

The prosecution say the woman, Ben-Rejab and Farjallah all shared a joint of cannabis, with the victim forced to slap Farjallah’s hand away when he tried to grope her breasts.

Ben-Rejab and the woman then retired to the bedroom, explained prosecutor Miss Alexandra Healy. “They proceed to have sexual intercourse and she consented and was a willing participant.

“Two other men came into the bedroom and began to join in. She protests and makes it clear she doesn’t want to be involved sexually with three men.

“Despite her protests the three men continue to sexually assault and rape her,” the prosecutor told the jury.

“She had made it quite clear in her actions that she no longer consented to sexual activity. She was crying and said ‘No’ over and over again.”

Ben-Rejab agrees he had sex with the complainant, who he insists also had consensual sex with Farjallah after he suddenly entered the bedroom.

“At no stage was she crying or in distress at all. She was happy, she was fine.”
