Sex addiction expert on trial for rape of boy, 14

A Harley Street sex addiction specialist raped a child at a gym as the boy waited for a lift home from his mother, a court has heard.

Nicholas Gully, 47, a psychotherapist, is alleged to have followed the 14-yearold into public lavatories and raped him in a cubicle.

Hove Crown Court was told the child was too scared to cry out or fight back. Police were called after he confided in his friends and an aunt. Mr Gully, of Rottingdean, Brighton, who heads the Brunswick Clinic in Harley Street, London, was arrested and questioned.

Yesterday in court, Mr Gully denied rape and two counts of sexual assault at the King Alfred Leisure Centre in Hove, East Sussex.

The case continues.
