Faizan Dogar from Bolton Road, Bury, has been sentenced at Manchester Crown Court after pleading guilty to 12 offences, including five counts of rape.
Dogar admitted to two counts of sexual communication with a child and three counts of inciting a child to engage in sexual activity. Possession of indecent images was also among the charges he faced.
Detective Constable Nathan Lilley of Bury CID described Dogar as a “calculating sexual predator who has subjected two young victims to horrific attacks.” He added, “He is a fantasist with an unhealthy interest in the abuse of women and young girls. Both victims continue to be supported by specialist GMP officers and showed extreme bravery in providing evidence against Dogar. He is a dangerous individual and it’s a relief that he is off the streets and behind bars.”
In August 2021, Dogar contacted his first victim via Facebook and Snapchat. After arranging to meet, he became aggressive when she said she wanted to go home. He put her in a headlock, fondled her, then threatened to choke her unconscious before raping her. CCTV footage captured Dogar with the victim, and police found clothing matching the footage at his home. A search also uncovered his mobile phone containing indecent images and evidence linking him to the victim.
In May 2022, Dogar contacted a second victim through Snapchat, initially bonding over gaming chats. He then raped her after arranging to meet. Police tracked the mobile number he used to contact her, which led to his arrest and a full investigation by Greater Manchester Police’s Bury and Salford districts.
