THE trial of a man accused of raping a teenager in a Southampton park is set to begin today.
Jozef Janczura, of Laburnum Road, Southampton, is set to stand trial at Southampton Crown Court accused of the rape and assault of an 18-year-old woman.
It comes after a woman reported she was raped near Woodmill Lane.
The incident is alleged to have happened between 11.30pm and 11.50pm on Sunday, December 2 last year.
As well as an accusation of rape, Janczura also faces an allegation of causing actual bodily harm.
The 34-year-old denies both allegations.
The trial is set to last for five days.
