A PREDATORY sex beast violently raped a young British waitress working in an Ayia Napa night club.
The twisted attacker was found guilty of the vile crime and has been sentenced to eight years in prison in Cyprus.
The offender, who The Sun Online can identify as a 32-year-old Nigerian asylum seeker, will serve the jail term in the high security general prison in Nicosia, the island’s capital
He was driven under guard back from the court to the jail after being sentenced on Wednesday.
The Larnaca-Famagusta criminal court heard how the culprit raped the victim after driving her to a remote beach on false pretences.
He then forced her to take laughing gas and cannabis.
Ignoring her pleas to return to the apartment she was staying at in the party resort, he threw her to the ground, pinned her down and raped her as she wept.
The woman did not appear for the closed-door hearing.
She gave a graphic account of how she was violently attacked by the culprit.
He drove her into the countryside when she finished working at an Ayia Napa bar on June 26, 2019.
The victim said the attacker violently raped her despite her begging him to stop.
In the testimony she described how she was raped continuously for at least five minutes on a remote beach near a church.
He then drove her to the apartment she was staying.
One witness described her as being “very upset, she was crying and her hair was messy, and she didn’t speak for a long time”.
After she reported the case to Cypriot authorities the defendant was arrested but claimed the woman had engaged in consensual sex with him.

The incident occurred less than three weeks before a Brit teenager said she was gang-raped by up to 12 Israelis in a hotel in the popular resort town.
The teen, from Derbyshire, claims she was forced to recount her accusation after being held for eight hours by police – and was then convicted of making up the claims by Cypriot authorities.
The case put a new focus on sex crimes in Cyprus and the way allegations are handled by the police.
