A University of Illinois freshman is being held on $500,000 bail after he allegedly attempted to act out scenes from Fifty Shades of Grey with a classmate without her consent, reports the Chicago Tribune. Nineteen-year-old Mohammad Hossain, a student leader and triathlon athlete, is being charged with aggravated criminal sexual assault.
According to reports, Hossain and the unnamed woman, with whom he'd been intimate before, went back to his dorm room on Saturday evening and started to hook up. The woman agreed to strip down to her bra and underwear before Hossain allegedly tied her arms and legs to the bed with a belt, gagged her with a tie, and began hitting her with the belt. He then reportedly covered her eyes with a cap and continued to hit and punch her before sexually assaulting her "as she continued to plead for him to stop."
When Hossain's roommate came home shortly after the assault, he attempted to hold the door to keep him out, but in the ensuing fracas, the woman was able to escape and call the police.

A college student has been charged with sexually assaulting 19-year-old woman after he allegedly attempted to recreate Fifty Shades of Grey.
Mohammad Hossain, 19, is accused of tying up his victim, a fellow student, whipping and punching her before raping her in his dormitory at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
The engineering student has admitted to police that he assaulted the woman, but explained to them that it was because they were 're-enacting scenes from Fifty Shades of Grey'.
[. . .]
Despite the victim crying and continuing to beg him to stop, Mr Hossein held her arms behind her back and sexually assaulted her, an arrest warrant claims.
The woman left Mr Hossain's dorm after the alleged assault and reported the incident to the police.
Mr Hossain was arrested by campus police, and after admitting to 'doing something wrong' and assaulting the woman, he told officers they had been 're-enacting scenes from Fifty Shades of Grey', Ms Karr said according to the newspaper.
Mr Hossain remains in custody on a $500,000 bail. His lawyer claims he thought the sex was consensual.
