A rapist who treated his victim “like a slave” and claimed he did not receive a fair trial after the complainant branded him a murderer and a member of the Russian mafia from the witness box, has failed in a bid to overturn his conviction.
The man, a 71-year-old Polish national, had pleaded not guilty to two counts of rape contrary to common law and four counts of rape, contrary to Section 4 of the Criminal Law (Rape) (Amendment) Act 1990, against a woman who was working as his cleaner.
