An Afghan migrant accused of raping two 14-year-old girls has blamed ‘Satan’ for ‘losing control’ as he drank alcohol.
Sultani Bakatash, 29, is said to have plied both teenagers with vodka before ‘seizing the opportunity to rape and abuse them’ in December last year at his Bolton flat.
He earlier pleaded not guilty to two counts of rape; two counts of assault by penetration; and sexual assault.
