Man in Halmstad sentenced for child rape

A 31-year-old man in Halmstad has been sentenced to prison for several sexual crimes against children, including two counts of aggravated rape, SVT Nyheter Halland reports.

According to the indictment, four girls under the age of 15 were victimized. The man contacted the girls via the Snapchat app, where he pretended to be 16. He then offered them alcohol at his home and sexually assaulted them.

He is also said to have encouraged the girls in chats to send him scantily clad photos.

In addition to two counts of aggravated rape of children, the man is now charged, despite his denials, with aggravated exploitation of children for sexual posing and sexual molestation.

He faces a sentence of seven and a half years in prison. He faces paying over 900,000 kronor in damages.
