“My ‘no’ didn’t matter,” the now-21-year-old said as two Afghan migrants finally stand trial for rape more than three years after the alleged attack in Germany.
A young German woman has said she was made to feel “like a doll” by two Afghan migrants currently standing trial on rape charges pertaining to an alleged attack more than three years ago.
Sina, whose name has been changed to protect her identity, spoke to the Bild newspaper about her experience amid the ongoing case being heard at the district court in the western German city of Wiesbaden.
“The nightmare repeats itself when I see their faces. It feels like it all happened yesterday,” the now 21-year-old said as she recalled a trauma that continues to affect her today.
She explained how she met the defendants, Sayed Sajad H., 23, and Rames H., 22, in the summer of 2021 at Kollmann-Weiher in Frankfurt’s Sossenheim district after matching with Rames on a dating app.
“I had just turned 18. I wanted a stable relationship, something solid. Since that day, nothing has been the same,” she said.
