Two Afghan migrants are accused of raping an autistic girl, 14, on a train while commuters stared at their phones

Baryalai Rahimi, 25, and Mirebadurahman Sadat, 29, allegedly noticed the runaway teenager at a rural Kent station and boarded a London-bound train behind her on February 5. The autistic 14-year-old told the court she "didn't know how to say no" as the assault took place in the train toilets. Other passengers are said to have looked at their phones throughout without stepping in.

The girl had run away from home before the two Afghan migrants allegedly singled her out at the station.

Both men deny the charges; the trial is ongoing at crown court.
