After the repeated rape of a student in Bonn, the district court there ordered preventive detention for the previously convicted rapist.
In addition, the 36-year-old from Morsbach (Oberberg district) was sentenced to ten years in prison for the rape.
The man is a dangerous hangman.
The risk of recurrence is high, it said in the verdict.
The man drove to Bonn on the evening of March 14, 2022 and rang the bell at a shared apartment in the old town around 11 p.m.
The 25-year-old student is open.
At the apartment door, the man immediately covered her mouth and pushed her into the apartment.
Then he locked himself with the young woman in her shared room, tied her up, gagged her and raped her three times in the hours that followed.
Defendant remains silent and apologizes
The student had to be treated in a psychiatric ward for two months because of the serious psychological consequences.
She never returned to the crime apartment.
The accused had remained silent during the trial, he had no recollection of what happened, he said to his defense attorney.
In the last word he had apologized to the victim if he actually "did something like that".
According to the verdict, the accused has already committed three serious crimes against women.
