A judge has slammed police for failing to charge a rapist who went on to attack a second woman after being allowed to walk free following his arrest. Abdul Khan, 27, subjected two young women to terrifying sex attacks after driving them to the same location in his car three years apart.
A court heard Khan first struck on October 13, 2019, when he met a 20-year-old university student outside a nightclub in Birmingham. He then drove her to an address in the Ward End area of the city, where he raped her - leaving her fearing "she was going to die."
After being arrested and released, Khan was free to strike again and contacted the second victim, aged 18, pretending he had met her before. He picked her up on the pretence they would "chill" together, but drove her to the same location and subjected her to a harrowing 40-minute rape ordeal.
