The court said Ans preyed on women he met online and offered compensation after assaults, with one victim receiving a $3,000 offer.
- Plymouth Crown Court sentenced Muhammad Ans to 20 years in prison for raping three women he met on dating apps, with an additional three years on extended licence.
- Ans targeted women on Bumble, Badoo, and Tinder, presenting himself as charming before isolating them and raping them in private accommodations after arranging initial meetings.
- Detective Constable Craig Ferguson recovered phone messages where Ans apologized and offered money to victims; he attempted to pay one victim $3,000 to 'leave it' after the assault.
- Victims detailed profound psychological trauma, with one stating, "I'm finding it hard to describe the initial impact of Ans' rape," and expressed lasting anxiety and nightmares.
- Judge Matthew Turner described Ans' actions as a "single-minded pursuit of your own sexual gratification," placing him on the sex offender registry for life.
