A man who allegedly referred to himself as 'Spiderman' during an alleged sexual assault has been granted bail for the second time in the ACT Magistrates Court.
Seti Moala, 26, is facing three charges of rape and one charge of strangling another person.
Documents tendered to the court revealed that a woman had met a friend of Mr Moala's at Canberra's Fiction nightclub, before she returned to the friend's motel room.
While at the motel, the woman fell asleep before waking to Mr Moala on top of her, the documents said.
The documents also revealed that while he was on top of her, Mr Moala said he was "like Spiderman" and she would not be able to get him off her.
While she was being assaulted, the man she had initially met entered the room and put his penis in her mouth, the documents said.
Accused granted bail for second time
Mr Moala appeared via video link today, after a warrant was issued for his arrest in New South Wales for failing to appear in court in May.
A lawyer representing Mr Moala said he had attempted to comply with his bail conditions when he returned to NSW from the ACT, attending a police station and attempting to surrender his passport, when police told him he was not required to do so.
The court also heard that lawyers from Sydney representing Mr Moala had made contact with the court on the day before his hearing but did not turn up on the day to represent him.
Ultimately, Magistrate Lorraine Walker agreed that there had been confusion surrounding the bail conditions and granted him bail for the second time with strict conditions.
The hearing was adjourned twice while lawyers attempted to locate a Tongan translator.
"This is an important matter and it's one that needs to be on the record," Chief Magistrate Walker said.
Mr Moala will return to court in July.
