“My daughter then said she’d been attacked. I said ‘what do you mean attacked?’ and she said ‘I was raped in the forest, in the park’.”
The mother of a teenage girl who claimed she was raped in a Belfast park told a jury today she “sensed there was something wrong” with her daughter.Paul Klandyk, from Dunvegan Street in the city, has been charged with - and denies - raping and sexually assaulting the autistic teenager in Ormeau Park on Saturday June 13, 2020.
She said: “I knew she had been drinking because of her speech. I asked her where she was and she said she didn’t know, then she said she was in Ormeau Park and I said ‘you’ve missed the bus’. The girl’s mother said she told her daughter to walk to a doctor’s surgery on the Ormeau Road and she’s pick her up there.
She said: “They were crying. They were both crying before they got in the car as well. I kept asking my daughter what was wrong. I said ‘you have been drinking, that’s ok, forget about that. What’s wrong?’. I could sense there was something more wrong with the way they were behaving.
