A HWANGE man raped a sex worker he had hired in his haulage truck after he got drunk and forgot about their arrangement.
Hillary Moyo (20) of Kolowa Village in Simangani, Hwange told the court during the confirmation of his extra curial statement that he slept with the 20-year-old sex worker after finding her undressed in his bed.
Moyo, who is also facing a charge of theft, denied having taken the self-confessed sex worker's cellphone.
"Yes, the contents of my statement were given by me and are correct. I had sex with her because I found her sleeping in my bed undressed. I do not admit to the allegations that I stole her phone because I did not see it," said Moyo when he appeared before provincial magistrate Mrs Portia Mhlanga-Moyo for initial remand.
The court heard that on 2 November at around midnight, Moyo was on a drinking spree with the woman he had reportedly hired for sex services and her friend. At around 2am, the woman got excessively drunk and informed her client that she could not continue with the binge but wanted to sleep.
Moyo led the two women to a broken down haulage truck horse where he told them to sleep while he continued drinking.
"During that night while she slept, Moyo returned and sneaked into the truck before engage in sex with her, without her knowledge and consent. The complainant discovered the offence when she woke up at around 4am when she noticed that her trousers were pulled down and that there was semen on her private parts," said Miss Loveness Maseko, while prosecuting.
Unsure of what had transpired during the night, she woke up Moyo whom she found sleeping next to her after failing to locate her friend in the truck. She asked him about the events of the previous night before asking him about the person who had had sex with her.
Moyo is alleged to have confessed to the sex act, arguing that the two had an arrangement. He was remanded in custody to 10 November for plea recording after the case was referred to the regional court.
