Description
A man has been convicted of a series of sexual offences against women.
Alexander Steven, 52, was found guilty of numerous sexual offences, including rape and attempted rape, at Edinburgh High Court today, Wednesday, 27 August, 2025.
The offences took place between October 2020 and December 2022 in Dundee.
Detectives began an investigation into Steven in January 2023 after a woman came forward and reported a non-recent rape.
An extensive investigation identified a further four victims.
Steven was arrested and charged in April 2023.
Detective Inspector Craig Ross:
"Alexander Steven is a calculating and violent sexual predator who targeted a number of women over a two year period.
"His behaviour was appalling and he will now face the consequences of his actions.
"The fact that he has been convicted today is a tremendous credit to the women who came forward to police.
"I hope this conviction gives confidence to others who may have experienced anything similar to come forward, safe in the knowledge that we will thoroughly investigate.
“I would like to reassure anyone who comes forward that you will be listened to and supported throughout."
