Speaking via a Dari interpreter, the Afghan said his application to remain was being processed.

And he said he was placed in Nuneaton, Warwicks, around six weeks before his arrest over the alleged rape.

Mulakhil is accused alongside fellow asylum seeker Mohammad Kabir, 24, who allegedly tried to strangle the girl last July.

The migrant, who told cops the girl initiated sexual activity, admits oral rape but denies two rapes, two sex assaults and taking indecent pictures.
