A Brazilian man living in Sydney has been found not guilty of raping a woman he met via the Tinder dating app.

Rogerio Correia, 33, wiped away tears as the jury delivered its verdict on all 12 charges of sexual assault.

He always denied sexually assaulting the 29-year-old woman who accused him of rape.

In 2016 Mr Correia met the woman through the dating app Tinder. They conversed for five weeks before meeting at a party at her Sydney apartment, where she claimed he assaulted her despite her claims she pushed him away and said “no”.

In a police interview, Mr Correia said, through an interpreter, he felt “she wanted it, and that's what the Tinder application is for".

He also told police he had met 200 women on Tinder.

A NSW District Court jury on Tuesday found him not guilty of six counts of aggravated sexual assault and not guilty of six counts of sexual assault.

He wept in the dock as Judge Ian McClintock said: "As far as the state of NSW is concerned, Mr Correia is free to go.

The 33-year old was taken to Villawood Detention Centre where he's been held since his residency expired.

It's understood Mr Correia could re-apply for Australian residency, based on his acquittal.

But after the verdict was delivered, his lawyer told the court he now intended to return to his native Brazil.
