Trial continues of man accused of abusing girls in pub

A teenager who alleges she was repeatedly sexually abused from the age of eight by a barman in a Co Mayo pub has told a Central Criminal Court jury that she kept going back because she was getting alcohol and cigarettes.

The now 19-year-old girl claims she and her best friend were sexually assaulted and orally raped by the man for up to a year and that she kept returning to the pub because she was “addicted” to cigarettes and alcohol.
