Wicklow Man Found Guilty Of Raping Woman At Dublin Nightclub In 2019

3 men have been found guilty of various offences arising out of the rape and sexual assault of a woman they met in a Dublin city nightclub in August 2019.

39-year-old Anthony Hickey, from Ballyogen Square, Carrickmines, Dublin, was convicted of orally raping and sexually assaulting the woman in a car after leaving the nightclub.

Fabio Vicente, who's 42, of Little Newtown, Enniskerry, Co Wicklow; was convicted of two counts of rape.

While, 34-year-old Matin Zolfaghari, from Marlay Court in Rathfarnham, was found guilty of orally raping the woman back at Hickey’s house.

They claimed she had consented to everything that happened but the jury convicted them by majority verdict after deliberating for over thirteen hours.

Their sentence hearing will take place next month.
