The Tory MP has denied the charges levied against him in the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2021\/06\/19\/conservative-mp-imran-ahmad-khan-accused-of-sexually-assaulting-15-year-old-boy\/\">strongest terms<\/a>\u201c.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>On Wednesday, the court heard that during a 2008 birthday party in Staffordshire, Khan had asked an 18-year-old if he was a \u201ctrue Scotsman\u201d before lifting his kilt and later allegedly sexually assaulted the teen\u2019s 15-year-old brother.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecutor in the case, Sean Larkin QC, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/2022\/03\/29\/tory-mp-sexually-assaulted-teenage-boy-party-court-told\/\">told<\/a> the court per <em>The Telegraph<\/em>: \u201cKhan then lifted up the kilt with both hands and lunged at him so that he thought he was going to grab him,\u201d explaining that the teenager \u201cfelt very different\u201d about Khan\u2019s actions compared to other experience of people trying to lift his kilt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jurors heard that Khan was invited to the party by a friend of a friend and was told that he could stay over by the family, who placed him in the same room as the 18-year-old and his 15-year-old brother.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>The court was told that the 15-year-old heard Khan\u2019s \u201cbreathing was getting quite heavy\u201d as he sexually assaulted him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen [the complainant] went to bed, Mr Khan stood by that top bunk, reached in and touched his legs, reaching for, or actually touching, his groin. We suggest either way it was sexual assault. He pushed him away but he kept going, and when it would not stop he fled,\u201d the prosecutor said.<\/p>\n<p>The alleged victim \u2014 who remains anonymous per British law \u2014 was said to have been \u201cdistraught\u201d and reported the incident to police, telling officers that Khan had told him to \u201cshow me some porn\u201d and said that he was a \u201cgood-looking boy\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, the boy did not want to take the allegations further, however, once Mr Khan began to campaign for the House of Commons, he rose the complaint with the police again.<\/p>\n<p>Before being elected to Parliament, Khan served as a special assistant for political affairs at the United Nations in Somalia.<\/p>\n<p>In response to the trial, the Conservative Party suspended the whip from Khan, thereby preventing him from sitting in Parliament as a Tory, but he has not been officially expelled from the party.<\/p>\n<p>The trial continues.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Follow Kurt Zindulka on Twitter here <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KurtZindulka\">@KurtZindulka<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conservative MP Imran Ahmad\u00a0Khan has been accused of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy at a party in 2008, a court has heard.
