Description
POLICE have released an image of a man imprisoned for raping a six-year-old girl when he was a teenager.
Bradley Holloway, of Rupert Square, Reading, has been sent to prison for six years after being found guilty of two counts of rape he committed when he was between the ages of 13 to 15.
The now 32-year-old was found guilty following a trial in December and was sentenced this week at Reading Crown Court.
The victim, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told the court she has been left with post-traumatic stress disorder and had to sleep with the light on after her life was turned upside down by Holloway's abuse.
The Reading man committed sexual offences every Sunday and would 'offer to buy her toys' if she didn't tell anyone.
Judge Hassan Khan sentenced Holloway to six years' imprisonment for one count of rape and another six years to run concurrently for the second count.
He will serve at least half of the sentence before being released on licence. A sexual harm prevention order has also been made.
The court heard that Holloway is in the early stages of launching an appeal against his conviction.
