- Nathan Mundle throttled the victim close to his home in Haringey, north London
- Woman in her forties was ‘violently attacked’ but managed to escape Mundle
- Mundle had previously exposed himself to five women in five days
A flasher-turned-rapist has been jailed for 17 years after he strangled and dragged an unconscious woman into his home and held her against her will for over an hour.
Nathaniel Mundle throttled the victim, aged in her forties, before dragging her into his home in Haringey, north London.
Police said the woman was ‘violently attacked’, but managed to ‘bravely escape’ 23-year-old Mundle.
Mundle had previously appeared on the local police radar as a potentially dangerous sex offender when caught as a 19-year-old indecently exposing himself to five females in five days.
The victims included cyclists and a dog walker, some with their young children, and resulted in a judge banning Mundle from Walthamstow Marshes, where he would go to hunt him victims.
He has now pleaded guilty to raping his latest female victim on September 25, last year and also admitted a charge of kidnap and false imprisonment.
Wood Green Crown Court heard it was approximately 4.00pm when the victim was attacked from behind by Mundle, who beat and throttled her until she passed out.
He dragged her into his home and raped her while she was unconscious and forcibly detained her for over an hour.
Fortunately the woman managed to escape and was helped by a neighbour and police and an ambulance were called.
A “dangerous” man who kidnapped and raped a woman in his home in Haringey has been jailed.
