A serial rapist faces a lengthy jail sentence and possible deportation over a string of ‘horrifying’ attacks on revellers who were ‘vulnerable through intoxication and easy prey’.
Sid Ali Djelid was today convicted of five rapes against one woman and two men around Manchester’s gay village last year after prosecutors said his behaviour targeting lone people was ‘calculating and insidious’.
The 48-year-old Algerian migrant homed in on those who were drunk and disorientated, or who had been denied entry to venues.
The woman he attacked was bundled into a car, then driven to a quiet backstreet and raped twice.
Meanwhile, two men were led on foot to quiet back alleys where the takeaway worker forced himself on them.
