Two Paedophiles, Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor, have each received a two-and-a-half-year prison sentence for sexually assaulting two at-risk adolescent girls who had absconded from a children’s home in Bradford.
The underage victims were molested at a residence in Bradford after encountering Stanislav Himal by coincidence on the street late at night and providing him with directions.
He escorted them to the location where they anticipated receiving monetary compensation and cigarettes for their assistance, prosecutor Abigail Langford informed Bradford Crown Court today.
Stanislav Himal, 35, a father of seven, of Runswick Terrace, Wibsey, Bradford, and co-accused Jozef Fedor, 56, of Frank Street, Great Horton, then sexually molested the girls who were so frightened that they fled the house without their shoes and jackets.
Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor denied abusing the girls but were convicted by a jury of sexual assault.
Miss Langford said the girls arrived at the house in the early hours of the morning on a day several years ago.
It was then suggested to them that Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor were offering the money and cigarettes in return for sex, saying they ‘would have to work’ for them.
Things then ‘spiralled out of control’ with both girls being molested.
One was pushed upstairs and assaulted on a bed by Stanislav Himal. She was screaming and kicking out as she tried to fight him off.
She was then forced on the floor and abused again.
Fedor was kissing one girl against her will and trying to take off her leggings, the court was told.
The teenagers fled the house without their shoes and jackets and summoned help from a passer-by. One had a neck injury after struggling with her attacker.
The police were called and Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor denied the assaults at trial.
Miss Langford said the girls were particularly vulnerable. They were missing from a children’s home and out late at night.
Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor were acting together and there was an offer to give the teenagers alcohol.
“One young female saw her friend being assaulted and vice versa,” Miss Langford stated.
Andrea Parnham, for Stanislav Himal, said he had no previous convictions. The offending was opportunistic, impulsive and out of character.
He had a wife and seven children and was in work at the time.
Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor had been held in Leeds Prison on remand for several months.
Catherine Duffy, Jozef Fedor’s barrister, said he too had no previous convictions.
It was one incident more than three years ago.
Jozef Fedor had been working as a plumber and now intended to return to Slovakia on his release.
Recorder Patrick Palmer jailed Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor for 30 months.
He made Sexual Harm Prevention Orders for ten years and Stanislav Himal and Jozef Fedor must sign on the sex offender register, also for ten years.
