A TEENAGE girl wept as she told a court she had been raped in a hospital toilet by a nurse.

The 16-year-old had been taken to accident and emergency at the John Radcliffe Hospital, in Headington, after overdosing on paracetamol. She claims the nurse attacked her in a disabled toilet.

In a videotaped police interview played to jurors, she said she was led to the cubicle by 33-year-old Oliver Balicao after he said he needed to take a urine sample from her. She said he had groped her beforehand. Of the incident on March 12, she said: "It did not feel real, I was too dreamy, sleepy wise. He had sex with me then he got something on my gown and then he got up and said something like 'sorry' and said 'wait there because I need to change the gown'."

She told the officer: "I felt minging, disgusting. I just felt depressed and down, I felt horrible."

Balicao, of Lerwick Close, Bicester, admits sexual activity with a child by a person in a position of trust, but denies rape, saying she consented.

The girl, who cannot be named, was cross-examined by defence lawyer Brian Stork at Oxford Crown Court. He said his client put his hands under her gown to remove electrodes from her chest.

"He did that simply to remove those electrodes that were now useless, because the test had been completed. That it the truth, isn't it?"

The girl replied: "No".

The trial was adjourned briefly after she broke down. Later, Mr Stork suggested the girl had lured Balicao to the toilet to have sex with him. He added Balicao had listened to the girl's problems and shown an interest in her. She agreed he had.

The trial continues.
