Edinburgh man attacked woman as she slept on his couch after church service

An Edinburgh man who sexually assaulted a woman as she slept on his sofa has been placed on the Sex Offenders Register.

Bogdan Raczynski preyed on the sleeping woman after she and a friend had visited him after they had attended a church service in March last year. Raczynski, 53, crept up on the woman in the middle of the night and pulled down her leggings and underwear at his home in the Magdalene area of the capital.

Raczynski pleaded guilty to an amended charge of sexually assaulting the woman when he appeared in the dock at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Wednesday. Prosecutor Jennifer McLaren told the court Raczynski and the woman had known each other for around 15 years and she had attended at his flat with a friend on March 29 last year.
