Passenger enticed taxi driver into back seat of cab, court told

A taxi driver accused of raping a young mother in the back of his cab told a jury she begged him for sex. Mohammed Ahmed, 42, of Clifton Villas, Manningham, Bradford, said he picked up the woman in his minicab from outside the university on Great Horton Road.

Ahmed told Bradford Crown Court today it was an illegal action because he was only licensed to pick up pre-booked fares. He said the 19-year-old woman got into the back of his cab. She asked how he was spending the night and offered to have sex with him, Ahmed claimed.

Ahmed, a married man with four children, said he told her he felt unwell and was going home. He claimed the woman directed him to a dark country lane where he had never been before. He said she enticed him into the back of the cab with her.

Ahmed claimed she exposed her breasts and begged him to have sex with her. “I didn’t do it. She did everything,” he said. Ahmed, of good character, said that everything he did was with her consent.

He denies raping the woman twice on October 11 last year after she had been out in Bradford city centre. She was enjoying her first big night out since suffering from post-natal depression, the court heard.

The woman told the jury she had been drinking and could not recall leaving the Walkabout bar and getting into the cab. She remembered the driver taking a wrong turn on the way to her address.

He parked his taxi in a dark area, got into the back with her and said: “I’ll show you a good time,” she alleged. The jury was played a tape of the woman sobbing on her phone after she dialled 999 to report that she had been raped.

The trial continues.

Possibly Ahmed was dreaming about it too...Still...its for the Judge to decide how far someone can or cant make a piece of unwilling string stay upright..

I wonder if the Judge and jury were able to keep a straight face listening to that testimony ! But as toots said its his word against hers so unless there is any other evidence it is unlikely he will be convicted
