A twisted predator has been caught after DNA linked him to a shocking 2021 rape – just days after he tried to strike again in Leeds.

Boachie’s Sick Crime Spree Exposed

Rashid Boachie, 44, was found guilty today (19 February 2026) of two vile offences: rape and sexual assault. He’s set for sentencing on 25 March.

Boachie was arrested on 14 August 2025. DNA from that arrest matched samples found on the jeans of a woman raped back in August 2021 in Beeston, Leeds.

The 2021 victim had been out with friends and mistakenly got into Boachie’s car, thinking it was a taxi. Instead of taking her home, he drove her to an empty car park and attacked her.

In a chilling act of bravery, she managed to send a video message screaming “help me” from inside the car.

Justice Finally Closing In

Boachie has been behind bars since his August arrest. Now, he faces justice for terrorising two women in Leeds with his sick crimes.
