Hide AdDetective Constable Becky McInnis said: “Investigations of this nature are always difficult and I welcome today’s sentencing.
“I hope that this offers reassurance that we will always work to protect vulnerable people, taking action against those that commit offences against them.
“Where we have victims that are unable to be involved in the proceeding and we need to seek a prosecution without their participation - we will do so.
“I encourage anyone with any information or concerns about sexual offences being committed to call us on our non-emergency 101 number so that we can investigate.
“If you prefer to report information anonymously you can do so by calling the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
