WEST JORDAN, Utah, Sept. 27, 2017 (Gephardt Daily) — Police are asking for the public’s help in locating a third suspect allegedly involved in an aggravated assault of a 14-year-old West Jordan girl.
The West Jordan Police circulated a mugshot Wednesday of Nasouh A. Albasis-Albasis aka Ibrahim Ali, age 19.
Investigators say Albasis is wanted in the case in which two suspects allegedly sexually assaulted the teen as the third man recorded the crime.
Two brothers, Leclair Dodjim, 24, and Richard Djassera, 21, have already been booked into the Salt Lake County Jail. The probable cause statement classifies their cases as involving “aggravated sexual assault,” but does not list specific charges.
According to police, Murray residents Dodjim and Djassera, along with a third man, referred to in the original probable cause statement as “Nash,” picked the girl up on Sept. 19 after Dodjim “met” her on Snapchat.
The three men bought alcohol, took the teen to a mall parking lot, then to a hookah bar, and then to a party at a private home, the statement says.
After that, the victim’s next memory is being in the back of the silver Hyundai the men had picked her up in, with one man kissing her and her asking him to stop.
The recording picks up with the victim partially undressed, unresponsive, and the two men performing various sex acts on her.
The probable cause statement said the video shows the girl “making feeble attempts to push the person on top of her off,” adding, “It appears she is passed out and/or unconscious throughout most of the video and clearly cannot give consent to anything that is happening to her.”
Dodjim was arrested for an existing warrant and interviewed about the alleged rape. The probable cause statement says that after being read his Miranda rights, Dodjim admitted to picking up the girl with his friend and brother, and said they all consumed alcohol.
His friend, whom he claimed he knew only as Nash, said he was going to have sex with the victim, and did so in the back seat, the statement said. Dodjim said he was going to have sex with the girl next, but was too drunk, so just laid on top of her, he told police.
Dodjim identified Djassera as the driver and the person who recorded the video.
Djassera agreed to be interviewed, and said it was his brother and his brother’s friend who had sex with the girl, the statement says.
Referring to Djassera, the statement said, “he said he thought it was funny, so he recorded them having sex on his phone.”
