The jury had earlier listened to the summation of Justice Dawn Gregory and retired for just half an hour to consider the evidence before they returned with their unanimous verdict.
Hussein on being told that he was free to go, left the court in a hurry and went to a church to offer prayers.
This was after both the Prosecutor Attorney at Law Diana Kaulesar and Defence Counsel Attorney at Law Sasha Roberts had presented their closing arguments to the judge and mixed jury on Thursday.
Hussein was on trial for the two offences which were allegedly committed between April 27 and April 28, 2009 at Liverpool Village, Corentyne, Berbice on his one time live home lover.
The accused had maintained his innocence and had stated that any sex was consensual.
