An asylum seeker already jailed for grooming a child posed as a 14‑year‑old boy on Snapchat before meeting a 13‑year‑old girl in Nottingham and raping her twice, a court heard.

Abdul Khan, believed to be 28, was sentenced to nine and a half years at Nottingham Crown Court on Monday after a jury convicted him of two counts of rape, sexual activity with a child, sexual communication with a child, meeting a child following grooming and perverting the course of justice. He also faces automatic deportation to Afghanistan after serving two‑thirds of his sentence.
