Quote:Woman ‘feared she’d be murdered by asylum seekers who laughed as they gang-raped her on beach’Sun Article:
'A woman feared she’d be murdered when she was allegedly dragged on to a beach and raped by
three asylum seekers, a court heard. The alleged victim broke down as she told police how she
begged “get off, get off” and struggled to breathe as she was pinned down.
Egyptian nationals Karin Al-Danasurt, 20, and Ibrahim Alshafe, 25, and Iranian national Abdulla
Ahmadi, 26, are accused of targeting the woman when she became separated from her friends.
In a video interview, the woman said she came to on the pebbles on Brighton beach with one
man lying on her while another raped her.
The chaps who spread their culture on a seashore.
She added: “I thought: ‘Oh my God you’re going to kill me’. “I said ‘Get off, get off’ and he was
holding me down. I just closed my eyes. I thought: ‘What are you going to do to me now?’”
The woman also told how she was spat on, kicked and had her throat grabbed by the “laughing”
men.
Hove Crown Court heard the men were staying at Cisswood House Hotel in Horsham, West Sussex,
which was Home Office-approved accommodation for asylum seekers, at the time of the alleged attack.
Jurors were told Alshafe and Ahmadi both entered the UK via small boat on June 19, 2025 – three
months before the alleged rapes. Al-Danasurt entered the country on October 11, 2024, it was said.
In the early hours of October 4 last year, they allegedly targeted the woman as she left a nightclub in
the seaside resort. She had been at a bar with friends until around 3am before going to a nightclub
near the beach. The woman told police she remembered “taking drinks off this Asian man” before
she was sick in the toilet. She added: “After that I don’t remember anything.”
Prosecutor Hanna Llewellyn-Waters said she was intoxicated at the time and “to all intents and
purposes, incapacitated”. She added: “Frankly, to these defendants, the complainant was meat.
“She was repeatedly abused for their sexual gratification and entertainment.”
The court heard the woman was “staggering in the street” alone when she was “targeted” by the
three defendants. Ms Llewellyn-Waters continued: “That targeting was not founded in good will or
bonhomie, in high spirits – it was cynical, predatory and callous.”
Alshafe and Ahmadi took the woman to a location behind a beach shack and raped her “repeatedly”,
jurors heard. Al-Danasurt is alleged to have followed and although the woman did not know if he
raped her, the prosecutor said he was “fully aware of what was happening”. He is accused of
“serving to encourage the commission of those rapes” by filming the alleged attack.
The woman told police: “I could remember like I could see a light in my face, like do you know
like when you put a flash on a like on the camera on an iPhone and I could hear a foreign accent
saying ‘Dirty b***h, dirty b***h’.” She said that man grabbed hold of her face and forced her mouth
open before spitting in it and then encouraging the other men to do the same.
Jurors were shown footage of the “motionless” woman lying on her back with her eyes closed,
while Ahmadi and Alshafe allegedly raped her. One clip, found on Al-Danasurt’s phone, showed
Ahmadi covering his face with his hand during the alleged attack.
She said she was left bloodied and was drifting in and out of consciousness during the assault.
The woman continued: “I don’t know why they done it to me. I’m a nice person. “I hug everybody,
I just thought ‘Why are you doing this to me’. “I remember saying that ‘Why are you doing this to
me’ and they were just laughing. “They were violating me and recording me and laughing. I thought
they were going to kill me.”
Al-Danasurt claimed he barely knew his co-defendants, and videoed what happened because he
wanted to capture “potential evidence”. Ahmadi said the woman was fully consenting and claimed
she initiated the sexual encounter on the beach with the three of them. Alshafe denied being present
in Brighton altogether. Ahmadi, from Crewe in Cheshire, and Alshafe, who lives in Horsham, have
each denied two counts of raping the woman.
Al-Danasurt, also from Horsham, is jointly charged on all four counts of rape as a secondary party
“encouraging the rape by his actions at the scene, including filming it”, and has pleaded not guilty
to all four. He denies a fifth count of “sharing intimate films” without the complainant’s consent.
The trial continues...'
It's only an island if you look at it from the water.
