Rapist serving 19 years for Rotherham abuse handed another three year term
Sageer Hussain, 40, was found guilty earlier this year following a trial which heard how he targeted his victim 25 years ago
A man who was jailed for 19 years for subjecting a girl to a "campaign of violent rape" in Rotherham has been given a further three-year sentence after he was found guilty of raping another vulnerable teenager in the town.
Sageer Hussain, 40, was found guilty of rape at Sheffield Crown Court earlier this year following a trial which heard how he targeted his victim 25 years ago when she was about 13 years old.
Hussain was already serving a lengthy sentence after he was jailed for 19 years in 2016 for raping a 13-year-old girl in the South Yorkshire town.
On Tuesday, he was jailed for three years by Judge Charles Thomas.
Judge Thomas told Hussain: "The sad fact of this case is that, despite her young age at the time, you were not the first man to have abused and exploited (the complainant) in this area and around this time."
The judge told the court that the new sentence will start immediately.
He said Hussain is nearing the end of the custodial element of his 19-year sentence and the two terms will therefore overlap.
Earlier this year, a jury heard how the girl whom Hussain raped some time between July 2000 and July 2002 is now in her 30s.
Hussain, who was about two years older than her, led her down an alleyway in Rotherham town centre and said he would not let her back out unless she had sex with him.
Prosecutors told the jury how Hussain raped her with two other people present, one female and one male.
They said she cried throughout the ordeal as her exit was blocked.
The complainant watched Hussain being sentenced in court on Tuesday and was thanked by Judge Thomas for how she had conducted herself during the court proceedings.
