The woman was in the man’s car to give him a massage, as she had done on previous occasions, according to the prosecution’s written case. He then offered to massage her and told her to lie face down. Prosecutors allege that he raped her while holding her so tightly that she could not move.

Prosecutors are seeking eight years in prison for the man and 7,000 euros in compensation for the woman.
