Rapist husband 'twice invited two men in a single night to abuse his unconscious wife and even asked one to leave an online review', trial hears

A rapist husband who drugged his wife twice invited two men in a single night to abuse her – and even asked one to leave a TripAdvisor-style online review, a court heard today.The husband, in his 60s, who can't be named to protect his wife's identity, has admitted raping his wife over a 20-year period. Nine more men are on trial accused of sexually abusing her.He started inviting men he had met online around to the couple's four-bedroom home in 2023, Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court heard.The abuse escalated to the extent that by February last year, the husband invited men to attend 'one after the other', prosecutor Louise Oakley, KC, said.On one occasion, in the early hours of February 9 last year, the husband had 'crushed up a tablet and mixed it with some water and, with a pipette he tried dripping it under her tongue when she was already drunk and out of it', the prosecutor said. Philip Wild, 58, who the husband had contacted via wife-swapping website FabSwingers, arrived at 2.50am but only stayed for less than half an hour, it is alleged.Wild, whose online profile was called Peachy Ass 2, is accused of attempted rape and a sexual assault during the visit, which he denies.Jurors heard details of images taken by the husband of what he did with Wild in the bedroom, while the wife was 'fast asleep, breathing heavily'. Mohammed Sabir, 29,one of two men who 'abused the unconscious wife in a single night' Philip Wild, 58, visited before Sabir and attempted to rape the woman, it is allegedBut, Ms Oakley said, the husband immediately went back on FabSwingers to see if there was anyone else near their home in Stockport, Greater Manchester.Mohammed Sabir, now 29, attended a little over an hour later, at 4.36am, and went up to the bedroom to abuse the wife, the court was told.Ms Oakley said: 'They were strangers (but) before Mohammed Sabir went into that bedroom, he knew that (the wife) was not conscious and would not be able to consent.'Sabir, who the court heard called himself Kashmiri Spice, went on to rape the woman, it is claimed.The husband took dozens of pictures including one which, Ms Oakley said, showed the wife 'hanging out of the bed' and 'looking like a rag doll'.But she stirred and the men went downstairs, the court was told. Ms Oakley said that after the visit, the husband asked Sabir to 'leave a review, like you do on TripAdvisor when you've visited a nice restaurant'. The review, shown to jurors, was left on FabSwingers for 'other like-minded people' and included Sabir describing how it was 'really easy to set up a meet' and that it was his 'first experience of ******* someone's wife in front of them'. Clockwise from top left: defendants Philip Wild, Jordan Wallace, Robert Stewart, Jonathan Kirk, Richard Townsend, Alan Keelan, Mohammed Sabir and David GravesThe court heard it was not the first time two men had visited the house in one night.On September 24, 2024, another defendant Graham Brougham, now 74, came to the house followed separately by Sean Peers, 38, it is alleged.Brougham has admitted raping and sexually assaulting the wife at an earlier hearing and during his 2am visit, the husband took videos and pictures .Ms Oakley said: '(The husband) had clearly not been satisfied himself because he begins again looking for someone else to attend.'The court heard Peers attended at 3.15am, who sexually assaulted the wife. Images of the abuse were shared by the husband online with co-defendant Daniel Rayner, who the husband met through a Telegram group and lived in Kent, allegedly commenting: 'Oh wow, so when can I come over and play if you are pimping her out?' The husband replied: 'It's a long way from Kent.'Ms Oakley said his offending was 'cheered on' by Rayner, who at one point discussed ordering GHB from a 'guy in Thailand'.The court heard the husband also hosted a visit from university technician Keith Fotheringham, of Dundee, who stayed for nearly 90 minutes one night in October 2024.A total of eight videos and 75 photographs were taken, the court was told.Fotheringham has pleaded guilty to sexual assault, conspiracy to rape and conspiracy to administer substances at an earlier hearing.Ms Oakley said his involvement went 'way beyond' attending the home, with him supplying drugs to the husband in exchange for images. As videos and images were played and shown to the jury, one of the wife's two adult children walked out of the courtroom. Earlier today, Ms Oakley also described how the husband alone perpetrated a degrading sexual assault lasting over two hours in the early hours of July 28, 2024, while the wife was unconscious, and shared footage online.The court heard that before he started, the husband conducted an 'eye check', lifting up his wife's eyelids to check she was unconscious. Jordan Wallace allegedly raped wife 'with his hood up over his head and weaing headphones' Jordan Wallace is pictured outside Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester Married father-of-two Alan Keelan, 42, pictured at a football club awards presentation Keelan outside court this week, where he is on trial for offences including attempted rapeMs Oakley said that having arranged supplies of sedatives, the husband amassed a 'very large quantity of pipettes' which were 'found in the garden shed' by police.'Pipettes were also seized from within the bedroom,' Ms Oakley added.Within them, there were 'traces of medication that had been used so as to drug her', she said. On trial are David Graves, 60, a sales rep; Jonathan Kirk, 43, a senior paramedic; Robert Stewart, 70, a retired DJ; Mohammed Sabir, 29, a recruitment consultant; youth football coach Alan Keelan, 42; building company worker and dog walker Jordan Wallace, 31; taxi driver Philip Wild, 58; metal worker Richard Townsend, 38; and Daniel Rayner, 42, a self-employed mechanic.All deny a variety of sexual offences.In September, the woman's husband of 40 years admitted 62 charges including multiple rapes, jurors were told. Opening the trial on Monday, Ms Oakley said Stewart sent a message to the husband after he visited the house, urging him to 'delete all images' and saying 'remember what happened to the guy in France.' Robert Stewart, 70, a divorced father of two and grandfather, denies two rapes Jonathan Kirk, accused of two rapes, is among nine men charged with abuse of the wife Richard Townsend, 38, denies assaulting the woman at her home in Stockport David Graves, 60, denies conspiracy to rape, assault and administer a substanceHe wrote: 'Mate, have had a bad feeling about it all day. Delete all images from your phone etc as it's too risky. Remember what happened to the guy in France.'Delete me from your phone and life. If she caught you out it would be a whole lot of trouble and end your marriage and ruin your life.''The reference in the message related to the man in France who had been raping his wife, a lady by the name of Gisèle Pelicot,' Ms Oakley said.Stewart, Wild, Sabir and Kirk, all of Stockport, Greater Manchester, Graves, of Ilkeston, Derbyshire, and Rayner, of Whitstable, Kent, deny conspiracy to rape between 2015 and 2025.Graves and Rayner also deny conspiracy to assault by penetration between 2018 and 2025, while Stewart, Graves and Rayner deny conspiracy to administer a substance 'with the intention of stupefying or overpowering' the wife between 2015 and 2025.
