A 33-year-old man has been sentenced to six years after he was found guilty of rape.

Kamran Mahmood, of Harvey Crescent in Wellington, Telford was sentenced at Shrewsbury Crown Court yesterday (Thursday 18 January), after he was found guilty of a rape that took place in November 2022.

The court heard how Mahmood, who was 32 at the time, raped an 18-year-old girl in the female toilets of Mature Club & Cocktail Bar on The Parade in Wellington.

Mahmood was not known to his victim, and following police appeals officers were able to quickly arrest and charge him.
