Trefor Wickens, 53, allegedly abused the teen at his home in Peckham, south London in 1990, during a shamanic ritual while his wife and two children were asleep
A self-styled ‘white witch’ sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl after she went to see him for help with a back problem, a court has heard.
Trefor Wickens, 53, allegedly abused the teen at his home in Peckham, south London in 1990, during a shamanic ritual while his wife and two children were asleep.
Wickens, who in his mid-20s at the time, is said to have told his victim that it was part of a ‘regression session’ to see if they were in a relationship in a previous life.
Prosecutor Leanne James told the court: ‘The alleged victim was introduced at the time to Mr Wickens because she suffered medical issues with her back.
‘He styled himself as a white witch and a shaman. He prescribed her various herbs and so on for her back.’
It is claimed he touched her and tried to kiss her during the ritual, Camberwell Green Magistrate’s Court heard.
Ms James added: ‘The incident involves him and the alleged victim being home and in their living room after the rest of the family went to bed.
‘It is alleged they went into a regression session into a past life.’
Wickens grabbed her hand and proceeded to perform sex acts on the child, saying he was doing it ‘to see if they had been an item in a past life’, the court heard.
The court heard Wickens then proceeded to kiss and caress the 15-year-old and that he only stopped the sexual abuse ‘when she started to cry.’
Wickens, of south east London, denies indecent assault on a girl under the age of 16 years.
He was granted conditional bail and will appear at Inner London Crown Court on 26 September to set a date for a trial.
