A Hong Kong district councillor accused of sexually assaulting an underage girl more than a decade ago told her that couples should “bare their naked bodies to one another”, the alleged victim told a court on Monday.
Yuen Long district councillor Sei Chun-hing, 37, has denied indecently assaulting the woman, now 28, and having unlawful sexual intercourse with her in his home when she was underage.
Sei, a personal assistant to cultural and sports lawmaker Ma Fung-kwok, was arrested last April when the woman made a report to police.
The woman, identified only as X, told the District Court she was an 11-year-old in Primary Six when Sei, then an assistant to the director of her school’s theatre production, molested her in November 2008.
X, who testified via video link, said she noticed him glancing at her and buying her orange juice during their weekly meetings at her theatre rehearsals.
She said Sei later asked for her number and they regularly texted and called each other, in a relationship she described as “ambiguous”.
