British rapper and YouTuber Yung Filly, 30, is on trial in Perth District Court accused of sexually assaulting a young woman after a concert in Western Australia. Court documents and testimony presented to the jury allege that after the September 2024 Perth show, the complainant was invited back to a hotel room, where she was sexually assaulted without consent. Prosecutors allege the incident involved multiple counts, including sexual penetration offences, with the victim describing alleged physical violence during the night.
Across reports, the woman says she was bitten, slapped, and strangled, and that she was raped. The West Australian and other outlets also report she required a tetanus shot due to a bite wound. The Guardian reports that Filly pleads not guilty to six counts of sexually penetrating the complainant without consent. Coverage also notes the complainant encountered him in connection with the event, including allegations of alcohol being provided in the lead-up to the alleged assault.
The matter is being heard before a jury, with Filly maintaining a plea of not guilty.
