University Student charged with assault after re-enacting 'Fifty Shades of Grey' scenes

A student at University of Illinois at Chicago has been charged with sexual assault after he allegedly re-enacted scenes from "Fifty Shades of Grey" on a female student. The 19-year-old Mohammad Hossain asked the woman to remove her clothing and then bound her hands above her head with a belt. He then used an additional belt to bind her legs and stuffed a necktie into her mouth.
Assistant State's Attorney Sarah Karr tells the Tribune that Hossain put a knit cap over woman's eyes, and removed her undergarments. While Hossain was striking the woman with a belt, she told him to stop "and began shaking her head and crying."
Karr reports that Hossain continued striking the woman, also with his fists. He then sexually assaulted her as she consistently asked him to stop.
USA Today reports Hossain's roommate came to their dorm room after the incident. Hossain blocked the door so the roommate could not enter.
According to prosecutors, the woman contacted authorities after leaving the dorm. Hossain posted a Facebook status about an hour after the crime that read, "I'm finally satisfied," USA Today says.
New York Daily News reports Hossain allegedly admitted to assaulting the woman and "doing something wrong." He cited "Fifty Shades of Grey" as his inspiration for the assault.
Hossain was charged with aggravated criminal sexual assault and a Cook County judge set a $500,000 bail, USA Today adds.
