| Court is told of 'black magic' claims by mum |
| 2010-11-04 |
| AN ALLEGED sex offender has been described to a jury as a "black magician in the guise of a devout Muslim" by the mother of one of his supposed victims. Allegations of satanic worship, attempted murder, and demonic possession have also emerged in the case of Mohammed Anjum at Teesside Crown Court. The 53-year-old is accused of exposing his glitter-flecked private parts to two young children - a boy and a girl - before carrying out two solo sexual acts in front of them. He denies the allegations. Yesterday, the mother of the boy took to the witness stand where she made a series of claims. She admitted previously liking Anjum but not trusting him, before becoming suspicious of him. She later asked her son if Anjum had "touched him". "I thought he is leading a double life -- he has disguised himself as this religious devout Muslim," she said. Defending Anjum, Tony Hawks claimed that the mother was trying to "ruin" him. |
