A 63-year-old man gave evidence today in the trial of a man half his age who is accused of raping and sexually assaulting him when he was on a blanket at the side of the street in Cork.

“There was a blanket. I was absolutely knackered — excuse the expression. Some fella put his hand down my pants. He put his hand down on my penis rubbing it. His hand was put on my private parts — my penis,” the complainant said.
