A United Kingdom court has sentenced 41-year-old Nigerian national, Elvis Nosakhare, to six years in prison for sexually assaulting his partner’s underage daughter.
The assaults occurred in the Thames Valley region after Nosakhare began dating the victim’s mother, whom he met through an online dating platform.
According to Thames Valley Police, Nosakhare was found guilty at Aylesbury Crown Court of two counts of penetrative sexual activity with a minor and three counts of non-penetrative sexual offences. The crimes came to light during an investigation by the force’s Child Abuse Unit.
Alongside his prison sentence, Nosakhare was placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life and handed a restraining order by the court.
Detective Constable Bryn Smith, who led the investigation, acknowledged the role of the victim in the case. “I want to commend the victim for her bravery during the investigation and court proceedings. I hope this conviction brings her a sense of justice,” he said.
Nosakhare, a resident of Sheelin Grove, Bletchley, was sentenced on July 29.
