Iranian man who raped girl, 13, in an alleyway is jailed for just SEVEN years -
because the judge didn't think he was a 'dangerous person'



The judge who sentenced Sorosh Amini, 21, said he did not consider the rapist to be a ‘dangerous person.’

And he concluded that the terrified victim did not suffer ‘severe’ psychological harm.

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp, who was also policing minister under the previous Government, told the Sun: ‘Amini violently attacked a 13-year old girl in broad daylight in Croydon town centre.

‘For the judge to give a lower sentence because she “allegedly didn’t suffer severe trauma as a result” is a disgrace.’

Amini approached the girl outside the Whitgift shopping centre in Croydon, south London, on August 4 last year, following her and repeatedly trying to engage her in conversation.

He tried to make her smoke cannabis with him, told her his friend had recently stabbed someone in the area, put his arm round her then led her down an alleyway.

The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said she thought he may have been carrying a knife, adding: ‘He had his hand on my face.

'He held me and his grip was really, really strong and I couldn’t get away.

‘But he held me from my back and my waist and he held me there. And so, obviously, I couldn’t even stop it.’

Amini then forced the girl to kiss him before raping her in the alleyway.
