A rapist who subjected his victims to a horrific reign of terror will be monitored for the rest of his life.
Alexander Thomson (42) has been given an Order of Lifelong Restriction, meaning he will be monitored for the rest of his life, after subjecting four women to shocking sexual and violent abuse.
At the High Court in Glasgow last week Thomson was given an OLR and sentenced to a minimum of four years in prison before he is eligible for parole. That means if he is ever released from prison he will be subject to conditions and monitoring for life.
