Man admits rape of prostitute in Glasgow

Published by The BBC
15th May 2013

Glasgow
A Palestinian man has been convicted of raping a woman in Glasgow city centre and assaulting another months earlier. Failed asylum seeker Mohammed Al Dehshari, 28, raped the 30-year-old, who had been working as a prostitute, in Washington Street in October 2012. He was caught after his DNA was found on the victim and later connected to an attack on another prostitute at a flat in Sighthill 18 months earlier.

Sentence on Dehshari was deferred and he was remanded in custody.

The High Court in Glasgow heard how a smiling Dehshari approached the rape victim on 10 October last year and guided her to a "lonely spot" in Washington Street. The woman said everything appeared fine until she insisted he use contraception.

Suffolk
A businessman accused of involvement in multi-million pound frauds has had one of the charges against him thrown out. After submissions by defence lawyers, Judge Rupert Overbury directed the jury at Ipswich Crown Court to return a not guilty verdict on Colin Samuels, 61, of The Street, Redgrave, on a charge of money laundering.

Samuels still faces one charge of money laundering involving £302,375 and two of conspiracy to defraud. He has pleaded not guilty to all.

The jury has heard claims that Samuels was part of a conspiracy in which call centres in Turkey and Spain were used to trick people in the UK into paying upfront fees in return for promised £600 a week payments for undertaking two ‘non-sexual’ dinner dates between November 2009 and November 2010.

Kent
A woman who incurred the wrath of a judge when she kissed her boyfriend in the dock on Valentine’s Day has been cleared of attempted robbery. Karla Shaw was working as a prostitute when she was alleged to have been in on a plot to mug a punter. But she was acquitted of the charge at Maidstone Crown Court.

The 24-year-old, of Manor Road, Chatham, had previously admitted robbing Elisha Hughes of cigarettes and cash and assaulting her and is due to be sentenced tomorrow.

A jury heard Shaw was offering services to Huseyin Turkucu when a knife was held to his throat in Chatham. The victim had picked up Shaw as he drove from Chatham to Rochester just before midnight on December 9 last year. She agreed to have sex with him for £20 and directed Mr Turkucu to a “quiet and dark” area known for soliciting off New Cut.
