Court case for coach

A touring South African rugby coach forced a hotel concierge to touch him while he stuck his finger in her mouth in the building’s stairwell, a court has heard. Joey Mongalo, defence coach for the Johannesburg-based Lions Super Rugby team, is charged with indecently assaulting the woman, 26, at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Coogee at about 8.20pm (local time) on April 23. The Downing Centre Local Court in Sydney heard that Mongalo is accused of grabbing the woman’s hand and putting it on his penis, then putting a finger from his free hand into her mouth.
