The accused was charged with sexual assault contrary to section 271 of the Criminal Code.
The central issue was whether the sexual intercourse between the accused and the complainant was consensual.
The complainant testified that she repeatedly told the accused she did not want to have sex, but he used force and violence to overcome her resistance, causing multiple injuries.
The accused claimed the sexual intercourse was consensual and that the complainant initiated sexual interest.
The court found the complainant to be a credible and reliable witness and rejected the accused's evidence.
The court found that the accused knew exactly what he was doing and used force and violence when the complainant would not comply.
The court rejected the accused's defences based on lack of sexual experience and cultural differences.
The accused was found guilty.
