The court heard that on August 5 at Gachui centre in Dagoreti subcounty, Nairobi county, AP raped SQ .
AP was also charged with the second count of committing an indecent act with an adult contrary to the Sexual Offences Act.
The accused person also denied two other offences of maliciously damaging shop items valued at Sh200,000 and creating disturbance with the aim of breaching peace.
The court was told he breached the peace by threatening to kill the complainant unless she leaves Gachui area.
