Description
Abdinasir Elmi, a Somalian asylum seeker and talented long-distance runner, was acquitted of sexual assault charges after a jury believed his account of a consensual encounter with an eighteen-year-old girl. Elmi, who once trained with Mo Farah, was in Bournemouth for a race and was cleared of unwanted touching during a park bench encounter. The judge dismissed the case, allowing Elmi to resume his running career without a conviction on his record.
