The Hamburg Regional Court has sentenced the Afghan Jaser A. to nine years in prison and subsequent preventive detention for rape, assault, deprivation of liberty, coercion and threats. The 31-year-old had previously held his ex-girlfriend captive in a flat in Hamburg for five days and severely abused the 22-year-old woman.

The man, who earns his living as a pimp in Germany, wanted to force his girlfriend into renewed obedience and into a partnership. During the captivity he raped the victim several times and even tattooed his name on her stomach. According to the Bild newspaper, the judge accused the convict of an “inhuman” offence.

After a six-month relationship, during which A. forced the then 20-year-old to prostitute herself, she broke up with him and fled back to the small town in Lower Saxony where she came from.
But the Afghan, who had already been convicted of rape once, tracked her down and brought her back to Hamburg by car. According to the court, he had already bitten her until she was bleeding and stabbed her in the eye during the journey. This was followed by five days of martyrdom in his flat on Elbchaussee. There he bound and gagged the woman until she finally pretended to want to return to him. This set her free, but she went to the police and reported the Afghan to the police.

During the hearing, he demanded to be deported to Afghanistan. The judge said that this would be possible in four and a half years at the earliest. However, if he were to return to Germany, he would have to serve the remainder of his sentence. And it is impossible to predict how long this will take due to the preventive detention.
