Scunthorpe resident, Malik Shahzad, has been imprisoned for 16 years upon his conviction for acts of rape, false imprisonment, and assault. The trial took place at Grimsby Crown Court, where it was uncovered that Shahzad had confined a woman in a house overnight, subjecting her to sustained violence and assault. Despite Shahzad refuting the charges, he was pronounced guilty and was additionally granted a lifetime restraining order. The verdict emphasises the gravity of the crimes and Humberside Police’s dedication to ensuring justice for victims.
