Prosecutors claimed the pair grinned at each other during the attack on the drunk and vulnerable victim in Dungannon, Co Tyrone last month.
One of the accused, 18-year-old Alcino Soares, has insisted all sexual activity was consensual and that she “wanted it”.Refusing his application for bail, a judge described the alleged incident as “predatory group activity”.
The complainant contacted police to report she had been attacked in the earlier hours of September 10 while on a night out in the town with friends. Crown lawyer Adrian Higgins told the court: “She recalls being intoxicated and stumbling into the area.”
