A 21-year-old male nursing student repeatedly raped, assaulted and threatened a woman in his care between July and November last year, a Brisbane court has heard. The Kenyan national, who cannot be named, has been in Australia on a student visa for the past year. He was taken into custody yesterday. He was charged with more than 20 counts of rape while working as a carer at a residence in Albany Creek, north of Brisbane, last year. Queensland police prosecutor Sergeant Aydina Pugh told the Brisbane Magistrates Court the alleged offences were “significant”.
