Paedophile jailed for sexual abuse

A paedophile who inflicted horrific sexual abuse on a young girl over a period of nine years has been jailed for four years.

Shaun Christopher Allan, 44, admitted one count of rape and seven of indecent assault against the girl, starting when she was just seven or eight years old at a house in Ludgershall

The victim, now a adult reported the abuse to police when she heard that Allan had pleaded guilty to a string of sexual assaults against children between 2001 and 2008, for which he was handed a four-year sentence in May 2010.

Allan’s sentence will follow on from the four years three months he is already serving and his name will remain on the sex offenders register for life.
