UK: Two Delivery Men Sexually Assault 14-Year-Old Girl
The News
Two delivery men who sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl who was home alone leaving her "crying hysterically" have been jailed.
It happened in Preston, Lancashire, when Sadnam Singh, 28, and Navjot Singh, 26, were delivering a television unit which the girl's mother had bought from an online auction site.
Sadnam Singh pinned her against the wall and assaulted her while Navjot Singh watched and laughed before he also attacked her, Lancashire Police said.
The men, from Wolverhampton, were found guilty of sexual assault following a trial at Preston Crown Court and each was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison.
The teenager had answered the door while her mother was at work before the men entered and launched their attack.
'Horrible assault'
After they left, the girl locked the front door and "immediately phoned her mother, crying hysterically as she told her what had happened".
Timeline
An investigation was launched and both men were arrested the same morning in Preston.
Reactions
Det Con Ben Clegg said the victim was "assaulted in a place where she should have felt safe - her own home".
He added: "This was a horrible assault on a teenager and I welcome the sentence imposed by the judge."
