Reynhard Sinaga, infamously known as Britain's most prolific rapist, has reportedly been targeted while serving his prison sentence.
Sinaga, an Indonesian national, is currently serving a 40-year sentence for committing 159 sexual offences, including 136 rapes, against young men in Manchester.
Sinaga's heinous crimes have left an indelible mark on the British legal system, with police believing he may have assaulted at least 206 men. His modus operandi involved luring victims from nightclubs and pubs to his flat, where he drugged and raped them, often filming the assaults.
The discovery of these recordings led to one of the largest rape inquiries in British history. The latest reports indicate that Sinaga has become a target within the prison system. Details of the incidents remain sparse, but it underscores the notoriety and revulsion surrounding his crimes.
A source within the prison stated, "Given the nature of his offences, it's not surprising that Sinaga would face hostility from other inmates." Sinaga's case has sparked widespread outrage and discussions about male rape, a topic often shrouded in stigma.
Iain Simkin, the lead prosecutor in Sinaga's case, described the evidence as "worse than a Gothic horror story," highlighting the severity and brutality of the attacks.
Daniel, one of Sinaga's victims who bravely waived his right to anonymity, shared his harrowing experience, stating, "To say as a man I have been raped is a hard thing. It makes you feel so vulnerable." His courage in speaking out has been pivotal in raising awareness and encouraging other victims to come forward.
Sinaga's conviction was a landmark moment in British legal history, with the Crown Prosecution Service labeling him as the most prolific rapist the country has ever seen. His life sentences were initially set with a minimum term of 30 years, later increased to 40 years by the Court of Appeal in December 2020.
