A Croydon Paedophile, Sorosh Amini has been incarcerated for the rape of a 13-year-old girl subsequent to an inquiry conducted by specialised detectives at the Metropolitan Police.
Sorosh Amini, 21 (14.11.2003), of Station Road, Croydon, was sentenced to seven years’ imprisonment on Friday, 27 June, at Croydon Crown Court, following his conviction for rape and sexual assault.
He was also granted a 10-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order.
Sorosh Amini was apprehended and indicted after a comprehensive investigation that employed CCTV footage and specially trained forensic canines to establish his presence at the location.
Sorosh Amini departed from his residence in London the day following the offence. Authorities subsequently utilised mobile data and surveillance footage to identify his whereabouts in Liverpool, leading to his arrest five days later.
Detective Inspector Donnett Oseni, who led the investigation, said:
“Sorosh Amini’s attack on this vulnerable girl was predatory and calculated. He has demonstrated himself to be a dangerous sexual offender and this sentence prevents him from harming anyone else.
“I want to commend the victim for her courage in coming forward and reporting this offence to us. I hope today’s verdict will bring her and her family some semblance of closure.”
In August 2024, Sorosh Amini approached the victim in broad daylight on North End Road in Croydon, persistently tried to engage her in conversation and would not leave her alone when told. He then followed her down North End Road and into an alleyway.
Here, he forcibly kissed her and tried to put a cannabis joint into her mouth. He also told her that he was friends with someone who recently stabbed a person in the area, making the victim scared that he may have a knife. Amini then raped her.
The victim reported the assault to police and received safeguarding and support from specialist officers.
Sorosh Amini was convicted on Thursday, 1 January following a two-week trial at the same court.
