A London-based millionaire originally from Saudi Arabia has been cleared by a UK court of the rape of a teenage girl after suggesting that the sex was ‘accidental’. He was acquitted despite the incredible excuse being that the 18 year-old was penetrated by him when he tripped over and fell on top of her…

The rich 46 year-old property developer and investor Ehsan Abdulaziz, was accused of sexually assaulting the young woman as she slept off a night of drinking on the couch of his upmarket and executive apartment. Abdulaziz had already had sexual intercourse with the woman’s 24 year-old friend and insisted that his penis was ‘poking out’ of his underwear after the encounter when he lost his balanced and ‘fell’ on the 18 year-old.

He claims that he fell on the girl as she attempted to seduce him and that that explains why DNA came to be found in her vagina. It seems a far-fetched tale, but the court bought it.

“I’m fragile, I fell down but nothing ever happened, between me and this girl nothing ever happened,” he claims. And, somewhat incredibly, the jury agreed. They took just thirty minutes to reach their verdict of ‘not guilty’.

Abdulaziz – of Maida Vale, London – was subsequently cleared of one count of rape after just thirty minutes in a move that has stunned many people. Was this a case of a lying girl and an unlucky man unfairly accused? Or are we looking at a case of corrupt justice and bribery? Opinion is split.
