In 2019, the Offender Database recorded that Quaser Abas, 37, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for the rape of a teenage girl who subsequently gave birth to his child. On appearing at Hull Crown Court following a five-day trial, the defendant—of Hull, East Yorkshire—was found guilty of the attack. It was reported that the abuse occurred over a short period, and the pregnancy was only discovered during a routine hospital check when the victim was 23 weeks pregnant.
The investigation established that Abas maintained a “vile” and persistent denial of his crimes, claiming the victim had fabricated the ordeal and suggesting that DNA evidence proving his paternity was “contaminated.” Humberisde Police reported that the teenage victim was too scared to tell anyone what had happened until the medical evidence became undeniable. The prosecution reported that Abas took advantage of the “immature and inexperienced” girl, ignoring her refusals to “vent his sexual energy.”
Judicial Findings and Investigative Detail
The court reported that Abas showed absolutely no remorse, continuing to protest his innocence even after a paternity test provided “overwhelming” proof of his guilt. Hull Crown Court heard moving victim impact statements from the girl and her mother, detailing how Abas had “destroyed” their family and forced a child to grow up far too fast. The investigation established that while the victim initially did not want the baby given the horrific circumstances of the conception, she ultimately decided to keep the child, a decision that changed the entire path of her life.
Judge David Tremberg branded Abas a “serious sex offender,” noting that he had stolen the victim’s childhood. For his actions in Hull, Abas was handed a 12-year custodial sentence. The judge noted that the defendant would serve half of his term in prison and the remainder on licence, with a lifetime Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) to ensure he never has the opportunity to be in a similar position of trust or proximity to children again.

Monitoring and Public Protection
Abas is managed under Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPA) as a high-risk predator within the East Yorkshire area. Due to the nature of his conduct in Hull, which involved the rape of a child and a total lack of accountability, his management is a maximum priority. Authorities state that his lifetime SHPO strictly prohibits him from having any unsupervised contact with female children under the age of 16, a measure designed to prevent any further predatory behaviour.
As a registered sex offender for life, Abas’s details are permanently logged on the national police database. Authorities state that his history of “vicious” deception and his attempt to blame the victim during the trial in Hull requires permanent vigilance by offender management teams. Any attempt to contact the victim or breach his digital and social restrictions will result in immediate arrest to ensure the ongoing safety of the community and to uphold the protection of young girls from further harm.
