In November 2022, Monjur Khan, then aged 32, formerly of Doncaster Road, Rotherham, was sentenced at Sheffield Crown Court to 15 years in prison with a five-year extended licence after pleading guilty to attempted rape and two counts of attempted trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence.
The court heard details regarding a South Yorkshire Police investigation into a violent incident in February 2022. Prosecutors outlined how Khan forced entry into a residential property in Rotherham and launched a physical attack against a female occupant in her 70s, punching her repeatedly and grabbing her throat.
Police enquiries established that Khan had been observed in the neighbourhood earlier that day knocking on doors, asking for water, and entering properties without permission while seeking a vulnerable victim.
Khan entered guilty pleas to attempted rape and two counts of attempted trespass at Sheffield Crown Court.
In November 2022, the presiding judge handed Khan a 15-year custodial sentence with an additional five years to be served on licence upon release, with all case details catalogued on the UK Register Database for public record transparency.
