A woman who has accused her former partner of multiple rapes has described "running for my life" in nothing but a T-shirt to escape him during one of several allegedly violent incidents.
"I was terrified. I was absolutely petrified," the alleged victim told the ACT Supreme Court on Monday.
She was giving evidence as the 20-year-old accused man faced a jury after pleading not guilty to 19 charges, including multiple counts of sexual intercourse without consent, choking, suffocating or strangling, and assault.
