News that convicted serial rapist Sunny Islam is seeking parole has sparked renewed public outrage on social media. The 37-year-old carried out a string of sexual attacks across east London over a three-month period between July and September 2010.
Having served the minimum tariff of his sentence, Islam is now eligible for parole. A private Parole Board hearing will determine whether he can be released on licence, a prospect that has drawn widespread condemnation online.
