Zainab Jamshaid, who was born female but identified as a man when the alleged abuse happened, is said to have worn the sex toy device at all times during the two-year relationship
A transgender man sexually assaulted a woman with a prosthetic penis during a ‘violent and controlling relationship’, a court heard. Zainab Jamshaid, 20, was said to have worn the device at all times during the turbulent two-year relationship.
The student – who was born female but identified as a man – would use it to sexually assault the woman who begged them to stop, Hove Crown Court was told. She kept using a safe word the couple had agreed to use if they wanted sexual activities to cease.
Jamshaid went on trial on Monday charged with numerous sexual offences, assaults, strangulation and coercive and controlling behaviour. The couple met at college, but their “perfect” relationship soon deteriorated, jurors were told.
The victim told police things got worse when they attended a party together and she discovered Jamshaid locked in the bathroom with a former girlfriend. The jury was told when she told them to come out she could hear them giggling behind the door.
After the girl left, Jamshaid then called the alleged victim into the bathroom and tried to undress her and began touching her in a sexual way despite her telling them to stop.
Prosecutor Sarah Lindop said after one row, Jamshaid pulled up the woman’s shorts and scratched a “Z” into her leg with a maths compass “as if marking her as his.” She said they first attacked the woman with the prosthetic at a hotel in Woking, Surrey in April 2023.
Ms Lindop said Jamshaid, who now identifies as a woman again, had begun kissing the victim before becoming aggressive. She told the court: “She told him to stop but to no effect. He had on him his prosthetic penis and that was when he used it on her.
“She spoke of saying ‘no’, using the safe word, but the defendant carried on regardless. He was getting some sort of kick out of it.”
In October of the same year Jamshaid again began to undress the woman before assaulting her with the prosthetic, its alleged. On another occasion the student is said to have trapped her in a college bathroom and strangled her before she lost consciousness.
On another, he had hit her with the neck of a wine bottle and had also punched her on the jaw while wearing a ring, causing a cut which later scarred, the court heard. Jamshaid denies all 14 charges. The trial continues.
