Sex Beast Jailed for 25 Years After Preying on Kids for Nearly 20 Years
A vile predator who raped and abused eight victims, mostly children, has finally been locked up. Pramod Dhakal, 49, was exposed only after a brave victim came forward in November 2023, prompting others to reveal their horrific stories.
Victims Mostly Kids, Youngest Just Eight
- Seven of the eight victims were children at the time of abuse.
- The youngest victim was just eight years old.
- Most victims hailed from Cambridgeshire, with one from Doncaster.
- Many feared speaking out, worried they wouldn’t be believed.
Fast Arrest, Denials Crumble in Court
Dhakal, from Victorian Crescent, Doncaster, was arrested within two days of police being alerted. He denied all charges throughout a gruelling 20-day trial at Cambridge Crown Court in September. But the jury needed less than three hours to convict him on 25 counts, including:
- 15 counts of sexual assault on a girl under 16
- 7 counts of rape of a girl under 16
- 3 counts of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity
25 Years Behind Bars & Lifetime Bans
On Monday, Dhakal was slammed with a 25-year prison sentence plus an extra eight years on licence. He’ll spend his life on the Sex Offenders Register and is banned from contacting any of his eight victims, with a restraining order lasting indefinitely. Justice served, but the damage to the victims will last forever.
