Read Time:45 Second
Two Nigerian men have found guilty by the Northampton Crown Court of multiple counts of rape of a 17-year-old girl in the United Kingdom.
The suspects, Tosin Dada, 34, formerly of Knox Road, Wellingborough, and Solomon Ibukun Adebiyi, 39, previously of Stanley Street, Northampton, were both charged with three counts of rape each in connection with an offence committed on March 12, 2022.
The suspects initially claimed that their encounter with the victim had been consensual, but their defence was rejected after a 9-day trial.
The jury deliberated for eight hours before returning unanimous guilty verdicts on all charges.
In a statement released on Monday via its official Facebook page, Northamptonshire Police confirmed the conviction and revealed that the two men had been remanded into custody.
The court has remanded both men into custody, with sentencing scheduled for October 25, 2024, at Northampton Crown Court.
