Description
A 54-year-old man has been found guilty of multiple sexual and violent offences against women in Fife and Perthshire.
Ian Hendry committed rape, assaults, and serious assaults between 1987 and 2022, and was convicted at the High Court in Edinburgh on October 16, 2025.
The former dog trainer was also found guilty of abusing animals in his care, and will be sentenced at the High Court in Edinburgh on Tuesday, November 25, 2025.
Detective Constable Dan Cogan of Police Scotland said:
"Hendry's offending spanned decades and he subjected women to sustained periods of physical and sexual abuse which continued over a number of years.
"Our thoughts remain with the victims who have had to endure the process of the trial and I thank them for their assistance with our investigations. I hope the verdict today brings them some sense of closure.
"Physical and sexual abuse will not be tolerated and time is no barrier to reporting a crime. I'd urge anyone who is experiencing abuse to report this to us so that we can fully investigate."
