Monjur Khan, a “dangerous predator” Rotherham Rapist has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for sexually assaulting a lady at her residence.
British sex offender Monjur Khan, 32, unlawfully entered the premises in Rotherham in February, according to South Yorkshire Police.
He subsequently struck the woman, who is in her seventies, multiple times, before seizing her by the throat, compelling her to the ground, and abusing her.
Monjur Khan was sentenced to imprisonment on Thursday at Sheffield Crown Court after admitting to attempted rape.
Monjur Khan also admitted two counts of attempted trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence.
Det Con Megan Byne said the assault took place despite the victim’s “heroic” attempts to fend him off.
She said the investigation into the attack revealed Khan had been seen in the area earlier the same day “behaving either inappropriately or suspiciously”.
“We had a number of instances where Monjur Khan was knocking on doors, asking for water or saying he was looking for someone. In some cases, he made his way into peoples’ homes,” she said.”This is clearly dangerous predatory behaviour, which suggests Monjur Khan had been looking for a vulnerable victim to attack that day.”
Monjur Khan, formerly of Doncaster Road, Rotherham, was told he must serve an additional five years on licence once released.
