Chat-room rapist gets ten years

The computer technician met both girls on the internet, the Zurich court head on Tuesday. He sexually abused one and raped the other, online news site 20 Minuten reported. “I had no long-term girlfriend and was frustrated,” the man said in an attempt to explain. The first girl he met was 15 years old. He had made contact with her over the internet and then appeared suddenly outside her house. He forced her into the basement, dressed in a balaclava and armed with a knife. He made her perform sexual acts with the blade against her neck.

The second victim was only 14 years old. This time he lured her into meeting him outside her school gates, using the name Martina as a pseudonym. Once again, the man was masked and threatened the girl with a knife. Vowing to slit her throat if she did not comply, the man then raped the girl. Having sent the girl a text message shortly before this last crime, the police were able to track him down a couple of days later.
