A GOLD Coast man who claimed his body was regularly taken over by
an ancient Egyptian sex god appeared in court yesterday charged
with sexually assaulting his teenage stepdaughter.
The 29-year-old man and his 40-year-old wife, an erotic masseuse
and "spiritual healer", allegedly had sex with and in front of the
14-year-old girl. The mother also allegedly had sex with the
daughter's boyfriend.
Both pleaded not guilty in Southport District Court to nine charges
including rape, carnal knowledge and maintaining a sexual
relationship with a child.
Opening what he described as a "bizarre" case, Crown prosecutor
Peter Nolan said the man claimed to take on the persona of Min, the
ancient Egyptian god of sexuality and fertility.
"Min" went into a trance-like state and took commands to perform
sex acts on his stepdaughter from the accused woman, who was known
as "master" and who called her daughter "the entity", the court was
told.
Mr Nolan claimed this was a "charlatan act" so the accused could
seduce the girl.
Mr Nolan said most of the alleged offences occurred in the garage
of the couple's home, where the woman operated a massage
business.
In a statement read to the court, the victim said she was convinced
that Min was an "unlimited god" with "special powers" that would
make her forget she had been molested as a child, cure her of a
cyst and teach her how to have multiple orgasms.
"My mother told me not to be afraid. She said it would change my
life forever," she said in the statement.
The victim said she had eventually gone to the police to protect
her siblings "so it would never happen to them".
She said she still loved her mother "no matter what". The trial
continues.
