Rapist jailed for sleeping woman attack
Kazeem Kadiri, 38, sneaked into the bed where the woman was asleep in the middle of the night and carried out the sex attack on his victim.
He had denied raping the 29-year-old Edinburgh office worker on November 7, 2010 at a house in Livingston, West Lothian, but was found guilty of the offence after a trial.

“You had no right to do so and you had no reason to believe at all that that woman consented to what you did.”
The judge told Kadiri that she would sentence him to a period of imprisonment and added: “The current law is you will be deported.”
