MORAIKEJI ADEWOLE ACCUSED OF SEXUAL ASSAULT IN DARTFORD NIGHTCLUB HEAVEN

Morenikeji Adewole, a 47-year-old man residing in Dartford, Kent, is currently facing serious allegations of sexual assault that took place at the popular nightclub Heaven in Dartford. The incident reportedly occurred in the early hours of November 1 of the previous year, drawing significant attention from local authorities and the court system.

According to court proceedings, the victim was a 19-year-old woman who was involved in the incident. It was revealed that she was heavily intoxicated at the time, which played a crucial role in the case. The court heard that she was initially denied entry into the nightclub due to her state of intoxication but later managed to meet up with her friends after being refused entry. Witnesses at the scene described her as visibly distressed and upset, suggesting that something distressing had happened to her during the night.

Further evidence presented in court indicated that the woman had been drinking vodka mixers, and her friend testified that her level of intoxication was approximately 'eight out of 10' on a scale measuring drunkenness, which signifies she was very drunk. This detail was significant in the case because it relates directly to the issue of consent, which the prosecution emphasized requires a person to have the capacity to give it. The court was told that if an individual is so intoxicated that they cannot properly consent, then any sexual activity involving that person would be considered non-consensual.

The central focus of the trial revolves around an alleged incident involving Morenikeji Adewole, who was working as a security guard at the nightclub. Witnesses described a situation where the woman appeared distressed and indicated that sexual activity may have occurred without her full consent. The prosecution argued that Adewole's actions were non-consensual and that he took advantage of her vulnerable state.

In his defense, Adewole's legal team contended that the woman was still quite intoxicated at the time and argued that any communications suggesting she had consensual sex with the guard were misrepresented or misunderstood. The defense sought to cast doubt on the allegations, emphasizing her level of intoxication and the circumstances surrounding the incident.

The trial remains ongoing, and the judge has yet to deliver a verdict or determine the appropriate sentence. The case continues to draw attention within the local community and highlights ongoing concerns about safety and conduct within nightlife venues in Dartford.
