(Photos) Lost Girl, 16, Who Asked Men For Directions Dragged To Flat And Gang Raped

A teenage girl who got lost stopped to ask men for direction but they dragged her back to a flat and gang-raped her. 

The girl had been on her way to a friend’s house after a night out. Kent police said she stopped to ask a group of men for directions in Ramsgate on Sunday, September 18 last year but the men took advantage of her. They then led her to one of their flats, where she was raped and escorted back out the building. She was eventually found crying in the street by two members of the public who called the police.

The three men and a boy who abused the teenage victim have been jailed. They are; Shersha Muslimyar, 21, Tamin Rahmani, 38, Rafiullah Hamidy, 24, and a 17-year-old unnamed boy.

Detective Inspector Richard Vickery, of Kent Police, said: “The victim in this case was a vulnerable teenage girl who was taken advantage of and subjected to some of the most horrendous crimes imaginable. It was late at night, she was lost and she asked a group of men for directions.

” Instead they saw an opportunity to fulfill their depraved sexual desires and betrayed the trust she placed in them in the worst possible way. Rape is an abhorrent crime and the victim has suffered a great deal of emotional harm from the ordeal she was forced to endure. She has displayed tremendous courage in reliving what happened to her, and I would like to personally thank her for having the strength to help bring her offenders to justice. They clearly pose a significant danger to women and children and are fully deserving of the lengthy prison sentences they have received.”

Muslimyar, of Canterbury; Rahmani, of Ramsgate, and Hamidy, of Herne Bay, were each sentenced to 14 years in prison. The 17-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was jailed for seven years.

All four had denied a charge of rape, but were found guilty at Canterbury Crown Court on Friday. Hamidy initially fled to Italy after the attack, but was returned to the UK in March after a European Arrest Warrant was issued, police said.
