Brisbane father-of-two and chef Sampath Sandaruwan Samaranayake, 44, posed as an Uber driver to lure women into his car in the early hours of September 2018.
A fake Uber driver has been accused of sexually assaulting five separate women by luring them into his car as they were leaving popular Brisbane clubs in the early hours, back in September 2018.
Premium Content  Claims by five women that they were sexually assaulted by a man who made them touch his excess skin and penis are so similar they must be true, a court has heard. Sampath Sandaruwan Samaranayake, 44, is accused of sexually assaulting the women while posing as an Uber driver in September 2018. Each of the women allege that Mr Samaranayake picked them up from Fortitude Valley and made them touch his excess skin and penis after he told them about his weight struggles. He also allegedly touched some of the women on their breasts. Prosecutor Sandra Cupina told a Brisbane District Court jury that the consistency of his modus operandi made it implausible that the accounts were not accurate.
