Overview
- Morenikeji Adewole, 47, is on trial at Southwark Crown Court for allegedly raping a 19-year-old woman near Heaven nightclub in November 2024, a charge he denies.
- Witnesses testified about the complainant's severe intoxication, with a friend describing her as too drunk to properly express herself or consent.
- The complainant reported having sex with the security guard after he allegedly promised to let her into the club, which she later described as deeply distressing.
- Friends testified that the complainant was crying, vomiting, and visibly upset after the incident, leading them to report it to club security, who were described as dismissive.
- Prosecutors argue that the complainant's level of intoxication negated her ability to provide valid consent, a central issue in the ongoing trial.
