A taxi driver rapist who attacked a woman and a 15-year-old girl in 2007, but escaped capture for 10 years, finally faced officers in a dramatic episode of 24 Hours in Police Custody.
Last night's Channel 4 programme showed footage of Shipu Ahmed, then 36, of Luton, being questioned after finally being arrested in September 2017 - a decade after he committed the crimes.
Back in 2007 a 15-year-old girl and woman, 22, both reported being raped by a taxi driver. Police collected DNA evidence at the time and knew they were connected but had never been able to match the sample to a suspect.
However when Ahmed was swabbed for DNA after being reported for a domestic incident in 2017, police were able to link him to the attacks and brought him in for questioning - only for Ahmed to swear on his daughter's life that both incidents were consensual.
