Policeman who raped girls jailed for 25 years

A paedophile police constable with an “insatiable appetite” for preying on young girls has been jailed for 25 years.

Ian Naude, 30, was convicted following a trial of the rape and sexual assault of a 13-yearold girl whom he met while serving as a student police officer with Cheshire Police.

Liverpool Crown Court heard Naude, who was sentenced for a total of 37 offences, joined the force in April last year and was obsessed with taking the virginity of teenage girlswhomhegroomed online.

He first met his rape victim in October last year when he was called to a domestic incident at her home and days later picked her up in his car and raped her in the back seat, filming the assault on his phone.
