Friend of alleged rape victim says one of the accused tried to have sex with her

The friend of a student allegedly raped by two men has told a trial that one of the accused tried to have sex with her before moving onto her friend.

In a trial at the Central Criminal Court, the men, who have a legal entitlement to anonymity, have pleaded not guilty to two counts of rape of the woman in a town in the county. Giving evidence, the complainant’s friend told the jury they were both “very bad” in the way of intoxication, adding she thought the complainant “was worse”.

“I remember [the complainant] saying ‘harder’. The guy beside me tried to put his penis inside me but I put my hands in front of myself and said: ‘No, no, no’. Under cross-examination she agreed that in the days after the incident she told gardaí that the complainant “seemed drunk, she seemed ok drunk, she didn’t seem that bad”.

The woman replied that it was a route she knew very well. She said her last memory was of her friend coming into her in the bathroom and saying “we have to go”.
