Manipulator who used 'demon'
voice wreaked havoc over
mentally ill woman's life
MATTHEW AGIUS
THE victim in the 'satanic
sex' trial against a man who
overpowered a traumatised
family, admitted covering up
for the accused in a previous
testimony in the Court of
Magistrates.
The accused is now on tri-
al for forcing her and one of
her daughters to perform un-
speakable sex acts – allegedly
at the request of a 'demon'.
The woman, who said she
suffered from borderline per-
sonality disorder, told Mad-
ame Justice Consuelo Scerri
Herrera that she had previ-
ously decided not to tell the
truth in court, because she
had received a call from her
youngest daughter who was
threatening to kill herself if
she did, minutes before tak-
ing the witness stand.
The trial of the 22-year-old
man, indicted for, amongst
other offences, aggravated
rape of his girlfriend's vul-
nerable mother and forcing
her and her two daughters to
perform sex acts against their
will, entered its second day
on Tuesday morning.
