The man reasoned out that he did not want his son to be gay because he already had two gay cousins, the court heard.
The father also wanted to involve his son in joint sex acts with the woman. The accused would take a prostitute friend to Marsa, the court heard but he sometimes also forced her to have sex with his son. The incidents allegedly happened in Marsa and at his home last year when the boy was six years old, the court heard.Īlthough the two women were involved in prostitution and drugs they felt they had no choice but to alert the authorities about the case.
It was the prostitutes themselves who anonymously reported the case to child protection agency Appogg, police inspectors Joseph Busuttil and John Spiteri told Magistrate Natasha Galea Sciberras. A 60-year-old man was charged in court this morning with engaging prostitutes with his young son to 'prevent him from becoming gay'.
