Rape accused 'was threatened', court hears
A Wexford man charged with raping a 14-year-old baby-sitter in his sister's home was threatened with being "knee-capped" unless he pleaded guilty and has been subjected to silent phonecalls.
The 30-year-old man has pleaded not guilty at the Central Criminal Court to raping and sexually assaulting the teenager in a Wexford town on November 25, 2006.
