Taxi Driver Sentenced for Rape | UK News

A former British Army translator and taxi driver from Afghanistan, Abdul Nabizada, has been sentenced to seven years for raping a 19-year-old passenger in 2021 — a crime he denies but was convicted of unanimously by the jury. The judge called it opportunistic, exploiting the victim’s intoxication, while noting his clean record, family ties, and citizenship application didn’t sway the verdict. He’ll be on the sex offenders register forever and barred from contacting the victim. Authorities praised the victim’s bravery and police work, underscoring that abuse of trust in essential services carries severe consequences.
