Man claims 3 inch penis is so small he could not have ‘raped woman in alleyway after party'
A MAN has claimed his three inch penis is so small he could not have raped a woman in an alleyway at a party, a court heard. Hossein Mohmoudi, 34, is accused of dragging the woman to the ground in Stratford, East London in the early hours of the morning. 1 He then allegedly pulled up her skirt and raped her before he was interrupted by a passing cyclist. But defence counsel David Harounoff questioned whether the woman could have felt Mohmoudi's penis. He told jurors at Snaresbrook Crown Court that Mohmoudi has a small penis and cannot "get it up". Giving evidence, the complainant grabbed a 30cm ruler from beside the witness stand and asked Mr Harounoff if he wanted an exact measurement. He responded: "I'm going to suggest to you what you said is untrue. He has erectile dysfunction. He can't get it up. "It's the defence case that he has erectile dysfunction and his penis is three inches long. "The defence case is it would be physically impossible to have attempted or actually raped you." But the complainant responded: "That's not true." The court heard the woman was returning home from a Christmas party in December last year when the alleged horror unfolded. She had jumped out of a taxi to be sick before boarding a bus to Stratford. Just before 1am, the woman claims she was "dragged" to the floor and raped by a 6ft, "Middle-Eastern-looking" man with "yellowy, pale skin" and a "messy beard". She told jurors: "I just remember thinking he was foul. Really disgusting. Not clean. The smell. He was a smelly man. I think it's still on me. A smoker. Not somebody who looks after themselves.' The woman claims she could not have consented to sex because she did not see her alleged attacker "until it was happening". She also told the court she recalls "freezing" in horror during the 20 to 30 second attack. Mohmoudi has claimed he thought he recognised the woman so approached her to help. He said he then ran off when she "became hysterical" and started shouting at him. CCTV played to jurors showed the woman entering the alleyway before Mohmoudi follows her in. Hidden behind a large gate or fence, she shouts: "Wait, wait, wait. F**k you. F**k off. F**k you. F**k off". A cyclist then passes in the background before Mohmoudi runs away from the scene. Mohmoudi denies rape and the trial continues.

Hundreds of supporters welcome Kneecap rapper Mo Chara as he arrives at court
Kneecap member Liam Og O hAnnaidh was greeted with hundreds of Kneecap supporters waving flags and holding banners as he arrived at court for allegedly supporting a proscribed terror organisation. Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, is accused of displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig in November last year. Demonstrations in support of the rapper were organised outside Westminster Magistrates' Court in London where he arrived on Wednesday, as well as in Dublin. The Metropolitan Police has imposed conditions limiting where the demonstration outside the court can take place, saying they are needed to 'prevent serious disruption'. O hAnnaidh was swamped by photographers as he arrived, with security officers taking more than a minute to usher him into the court building. Hundreds of supporters greeted the Kneecap rapper with cheers as he made his way from a silver people-carrier to the building. Fans held signs which read 'Free Mo Chara' while others waved Palestine and Irish flags before the rapper's arrival at court. Chants of 'free, free, Mo Chara' could also be heard over a megaphone, which was repeated by the crowd. In response to the Met imposing conditions on the protest, Kneecap described this move as a 'calculated political decision' that was 'designed to try and portray support for Kneecap as somehow troublesome', and 'asked supporters to go out of your way to be compliant with all instructions issued, irrespective of how pitiful'. O hAnnaidh received a rockstar welcome when he appeared at the same court in June, supported by fellow bandmates Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh. He was greeted by a festival-like atmosphere for his first court appearance, with dozens of fans waving flags, playing drums and one supporter setting off a smoke canister. The court previously heard the 27-year-old defendant is 'well within his rights' to voice his opinions on the Israel- Palestine conflict, but the alleged incident at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London, was a 'wholly different thing'. O hAnnaidh is yet to enter a plea to the charge.
