A 26 year old man who raped a woman in a Bradford pub beer garden has been jailed for seven years.
Bradford Crown Court heard that Dawood Mohammed, of Roper Lane, Queensbury, raped a prostitute twice in the early hours of the morning of August 11, 2014, behind the Harp of Erin pub.
Judge David Hatton told Mohammed “The nature of that woman’s work does not affect, one jot, the seriousness of your offending, nor the inevitable trauma that she will have suffered.”
He was initially found guilty after a trial in January 2015 after being deemed unfit to plead on the two counts of rape because of mental health issues.
However on February 12 this year, Mohammed was deemed fit to give pleas to the charges and pleaded guilty.
Mohammed was jailed for seven years in prison for each charge, to run concurrently.
