Islington man found by police in Northern Ireland is sent to jail, 13 years after rapes

Monday February 15, 2010

A RAPIST has begun a prison sentence after being caught 13 years after being involved in attacks on two women. 

Dawid Wysocki - who also went by the names of Adrzej Wysocki and Arthur Bryewicz - was jailed for eight and half years at Wood Green Crown Cour for two rapes on Friday. The offences relate to incidents in September 1996. One of the attacks took place on the Strawberry Vale Estate in Finchley, the other on Tottenham Marshes.

Mr Wysocki, 30, of Copehangen Street, Angel, was tracked down in Northern Ireland by police and arrested last November.

Detective Inspector Dan Brown, of the Specialist Crime Directorate, said: "Thanks to well co-coordinated joint police work between the Metropolitan Police Service, Garda and the Police Service of Northern Ireland this very dangerous man was apprehended. Dawid Wysocki has never shown any remorse for these crimes and was determined to avoid prison for committing them, what he didn’t appreciate was that police were equally determined to achieve justice for his victims.”

Two other men are serving jail sentences in connection with the attacks.
