Multiple rapist could be free in under four years' time!

Perhaps it's me, but it appears that news values are not what they used to be, I'm sure there was a time in the past when the conviction of a multiple rapist in Margate would have been front-page news, not page six, of the Thanet Times and would probably have made it quite prominently in to many of the national papers.

It must be some sad reflection of our times, and our liberal judiciary, that a man can rape three women and be eligible for parole in under four years time. Perhaps such leniency might just be acceptable, in some quarters, if this case, involved one incident fuelled by drugs perhaps combined with some misunderstanding, however that is not the situation because, the rapist in this case whilst on bail for the first rape, offended twice more knowing the seriousness of his original crime.

Judge Anthony Webb, gave rapist Qadar Hazarmeshe an indeterminate sentence, which means he cannot be released until the authorities are satisfied that he is fit for release and does not pose any threat to the community, reassuring isn't it, particularly since the authorities, allowed him to be bailed for the first rape enabling him to commit two more.

Not unexpectedly, no order has been made to deport this man, apparently in the past Hazarmeshe, claimed to have fought the Taliban in his native Afghanistan, is it any surprise, I don't think the Taliban are to keen on rapists either.
