Johannesburg - A Knysna businessman pleaded not guilty to
79 charges, including statutory rape, in the Thembalethu Magistrate’s Court, in
George, on Monday.
Adrian Wilson-Forbes, 60, faces charges of statutory
rape, abduction, indecent assault, trafficking persons for sexual purposes, and
child pornography.
In 2001 Wilson-Forbes allegedly abducted an 11-year-old
boy from the Garden Route mall in George, and took him to a local dam where he
allegedly exposed his genitals and offered him money to have sex with him.
The boy was allegedly indecently assaulted.
Subsequently Wilson-Forbes allegedly offered the boy
money to find him two young girls for sex.
The boy allegedly took photographs of Wilson-Forbes
engaging in sexual acts with the girls.
In March last year Wilson-Forbes allegedly contacted his
original victim, now an adult, to find him another girl under the age of 12.
The 8-year-old girl was taken to Herolds Bay, near
George, where she was allegedly raped.
Wilson-Forbes was arrested after the original victim
handed photographs of the sexual acts to the police.
The trial continues on Tuesday.
