The Nepalese victim, 27, was returning to a store room to drop off cleaning products when she was assaulted.
The defendant, 28, from Bangladesh, stripped her naked and pushed her against a wall.
“I had just finished cleaning the toilets in the lady’s prayer room and headed back to the store to return the tools and detergents,” said the woman.

The man was later arrested by police and confessed to the attack during questioning. He was ordered to be deported after serving his sentence.
