DM, “Boyfriend forced to watch as refugee rapes his girlfriend at knifepoint during camping trip in Germany”, 9 April 2017:

Woman, 23, raped at Siegaue Nature Reserve campsite, near Bonn in Germany

The refugee rapist had a machete and threatened her partner, 26, with violence

He tried to flee when police moved in to arrest him, flinging a rucksack at one officer.

A refugee from Ghana has been arrested for dragging a young woman from her tent and raping her while she was on a camping holiday with her boyfriend.

The young couple were on a camping trip in the Siegaue Nature Reserve, north of the former German capital of Bonn, when they were approached by a machete-wielding man at about 12.30am on Sunday last week.

A photofit picture of the attacker led to his arrest on Saturday and DNA testing confirmed his guilt, according to police.

The rape was one of the most high-profile sex attacks laid at the door of refugees since the migrant crisis began, prompting hundreds of tips from the public.

The 31-year-old asylum seeker was arrested in Siegburg after a walker recognized him from the police wanted poster.

DM, “Asylum seeker accused of raping a German woman in front of her boyfriend in terrifying knife-point attack calls her a ‘prostitute’ in furious courtroom outburst”, 27 Sept 2017:

- Woman, 23, raped at Siegaue Nature Reserve campsite, near Bonn in Germany

A Ghanaian asylum seeker accused of raping a German woman while forcing her boyfriend to watch called his victim ‘a prostitute’ in court.

The man - only identified as Eric X - is accused of raping a 23-year-old woman after spotting the couple camping in a nature reserve near Bonn, west Germany in April.

Appearing in a Bonn district court today, Eric X, 32, defied his lawyers’ advice to stay silent and after insulting his alleged victim, he added that anyone who believed her were ‘filthy.’

The attack took place on April 2, shortly after midnight. The couple were already asleep when Eric X allegedly cut through the tarpaulin, threatened them with a tree saw and ordered them to hand over their valuables - six euros (£5.35) and a music box.

After robbing them he is said to have dragged the 23-year-old woman outside, where he raped her and forced her boyfriend, 26, to watch.

Eric X. said: ‘If the girl claims she has been raped, she must be a prostitute.

‘All who help her in the lie are filthy people.’

Lawyer Gudrun Roth, who represents the 23-year-old student, said that it is ‘always a slap in the face, if someone who has experienced such a thing is mocked even further.’

Both of the victims, from Stuttgart, south-west Germany are currently undergoing psychological care as according to local media they are still heavily traumatised.
