You live in a shithole so stay there. I live in Nigeria and only a fool would immediately accuse a man of sexual assault without thoroughly investigating the case. Maybe tune in to CNN or read more news articles and you will know that so many innocent men are falsely accused of sexual assault and rape. I will enlighten you though, i take pride in doing so.

ChangeIsCostant:
A Nigerian man has been jailed for sexually assaulting a woman who rented a room from him online. The 34-year-old convict identified as Francis Ezenwankwo of Heston Street, SE14 was sentenced to six years’ imprisonment and a five year Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) on Friday, 22 June at Snaresbrook Crown Court.

He was found guilty of assault by penetration at the same court on Thursday, 22 June.

Stupid Igbo pole ......Igbo pole are the reason Nigerian has a bad reputation world wide

According to the Metropolitan police, the court heard that on 5 August 2017 a woman visiting from another country rented a room at Ezenwankwo’s house via an online site, spareroom.co.uk. During the night the woman awoke to find Ezenwankwo in her bed.

Despite her protests, Ezenwankwo remained in her bed and sexually assaulted her.

The incident was reported to police and Ezenwankwo was arrested on 22 August 2017 - he was charged the same day.

The Sexual Harm Prevention Order prevents Ezenwankwo from offering any room for rent, reward or as a gift for five years.

Trainee Detective Constable Harriet Lyons, from the Child Abuse and Sexual Offences Command said:

“The victim has shown real strength in coming forward and reporting to police. I encourage anyone else who may have been a victim to come forward and contact the police.

“Ezenwankwo's sentence and Sexual Harm Prevention Order demonstrates how seriously the police and the courts taken this type of offending. I hope that it will act as a deterrent to others.”

having a female as a room mate is like having a fowl as a pet.

Why should a lady share the same room with a stranger
It's similar to keeping a sheep in the same room with a wolf.

rentAcock:
They should investigate this matter very well. I won't blame the victim, but why will you rent a room with a single man? Who's to say they weren't already sexually involved prior to this incident but the woman wanted to ruin his life?

doeeyed:



I agree that should have been his prerogative.

However these agreements are oftentimes verbal or quite suggestive but open to interpretation, with no records.

I will be surprised if she made any payment, either by way of a deposit prior to the tenancy starting or afterwards. In addition, she slept there all night, only to report at the police station the next day, when you have a phone at hand to call for help and possibly sleep on the benches or pay handsomely at a motel / inn. There was cold-blooded calculation on her part.

You also have to factor in certain generational or cultural slants. With the older generation Africans, your intense flirting with a heterosexual man is often considered an open invitation and not harmless as seen by today's millennials. This ?derogatory patriarchal attitude is often criticized by the younger ones. Its not an excuse but just providing a backdrop. I'm not describing molestation or other deviant behaviour in my generalization, BTW.

Its all about being aware and protecting one's self at the end of the day.

I kinda agree with you. Thankfully the rules around renting out flats, houses or rooms are being tightened to avoid these situations. But the truth of the matter is that if someone is illegal or on a very tight budget they'll often avoid the overly legalistic process as it'll cost too much and it could potentially be out of reach as well.

But your observations are spot on.

To have relations with her. I don't think the man suddenly pounced on her one day. He might have been cajoling her to no avail and decided to take matters into his hands.

Interesting.

In a prior thread you claimed to be a married man and you posted at length about how the negligence and indifference of hospital staff nearly had serious consequences for your pregnant wife. Anyone would think you were an adult in the true sense of the word.

Yet here you are casually justifying rape and sexual assault with some poorly disguised metaphors. Rubbish.

Abroad, people can let a room for a short period whilst in a town for holiday or business.

It may be a shared flat but never a shared room except you are a backpacker.
