A man has been jailed for five years for sexually assaulting three women in a two-week period while working as a taxi driver.

Mansoor Uddin (41), a married father of three, of Castleway, Adamstown, Lucan, pleaded guilty on the morning of his trial last February at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court to a sexual assault on January 30th, 2016 and two sexual assaults on February 16th, 2016.

Judge Sinéad Ní­ Chulacháin sentenced Uddin to three years imprisonment for each count. She said the sentences on the latter two counts will run concurrently with each other, but consecutive to the earlier one.

The judge suspended the final year of the sentences for counts two and three for two years on strict conditions, leaving Uddin with an effective sentence of six years imprisonment with one year suspended.

During the trial, Sgt Aoife Cronin told Sinéad McMullan BL, prosecuting, that the first woman (19) continually pushed Uddin’s hand away as he rubbed her knee and leg while driving. He told her she had “a beautiful heart”.

He also touched her chest and rubbed her cheek, telling her she was “the most beautiful girl of the night”. The woman bit Uddin’s finger when he touched her cheek and told him she wanted to get out of the car.

Rolled down

She threw money at him and managed to get out but he drove alongside her, rolled down his window and said she could keep the money if she gave him a kiss. He invited her back into the car but she refused.

The second victim (20) got into Uddin’s taxi when upset after an argument with her boyfriend. He told her not to be upset because she was beautiful.

He wiped away her tears and rubbed her face and lip before brushing his hand down the side of her body. When she arrived at her home, he asked if she needed a hug before he leaned in as if to kiss her. The woman got out of the car and Uddin drove off at speed. She provided gardaí­ with a partial registration number.

The third woman (18) got into Uddin’s taxi about an hour later. He immediately began rubbing her leg and telling her how soft her skin was. She pushed him away and he tried to get his hand into her underwear. Uddin asked her what age she was and when she told him he smiled and said she was “really young”.

Sgt Cronin said the woman noticed that Uddin’s identification was behind a CD player. She accepted a call from a friend while in the taxi and tried to give her some of the details she could read off his identification.

Uddin became angry, opened her door and told her to get out. She tried to take a photograph of him but he stopped her.

Likeness

At a sentencing hearing Sgt Aoife Cronin told Sinéad McMullan BL, prosecuting, that gardaí­ used CCTV footage, a database of registered public service vehicles and a computer generated likeness from the first victim to identify Uddin.

As part of the garda investigation, officers also used GPS co-ordinates from the Hailo taxi app which confirmed that Uddin had travelled the three routes the women had outlined.

The court heard that as part of his bail conditions a female passenger was not permitted to be a front seat passenger in Uddin’s taxi. He was also subject to a curfew which meant that he was not permitted to work as a taxi driver at night.

Seamus Clarke SC, defending, said the bail conditions had been put in place by the High Court and that gardaí­policed Uddin while he was on bail. His license was revoked when he entered guilty pleas in February.

Mr Clarke said that a psychological report showed Uddin as being someone with low levels of intellectual function.

Judge Ní­ Chulacháin said the case was aggravated by Uddin abusing his position as a taxi driver, his being aware of the vulnerability of the injured parties, his refusing to stop the taxi in two of the three cases, the offences being at night, his touching one of the women on her bare skin under her clothing and the somewhat planned targeting of the third woman.

She said the mitigating factors were his guilty plea, his losing his livelihood, his losing of his tenancy, his difficulties in early life, his mental health difficulties, his previous good character and his lack of previous convictions.

A taxi driver has been jailed for five years for sexually assaulting three young women within three weeks in January and February 2016.
Mansoor Uddin, aged 41, a married father of three, with an address at Castleway, Adamstown in Lucan, pleaded guilty to the offences on the morning of his trial in February at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.
Uddin first assaulted a 19-year-old German woman on 30 January before committing the same offences against two other women aged 20 and 18 on 16 February 2016.
One of the victims got part of his car's registration number as he sped away, one tried to take a photo of his ID, while the 18-year-old called a friend while she was in his taxi and gave her Uddin's name and part of his taxi number.
She also tried to take a photograph of him but he stopped her.
Gardaí used GPS co-ordinates from the Hailo taxi app which confirmed that Uddin had travelled the three routes the women had outlined to gardaí.
The 41-year-old was arrested and charged but the case caused public outrage and was raised in the Dáil last month after it emerged that as part of his bail conditions any passenger, male or female, was not permitted to be a front seat passenger in Uddin's taxi.
He was also subject to a curfew which meant that he was not permitted to work as a taxi driver at night time but the concern was that he was still driving a taxi and carrying women on their own in the back.
However when he pleaded guilty in February, gardaí issued a statement confirming his licence had been immediately revoked.
Originally from Pakistan, Mansoor Uddin has three children - a young son and two teenage daughters.
Judge Sinead Ní Chulacháin said the case was aggravated by Uddin abusing his position as a taxi driver, his being aware of the vulnerability of the injured parties, his refusing to stop the taxi in two of the three cases and the timing of the offences being at night.
She sentenced him to six years in prison with the final year suspended.

The immigrant council of Ireland will put it down to being a cry for help with his sexual problem.what amazes me is,the fact these cunts are getting through the vetting process and the politicians dont have the balls to question it for fear of the immigrant council of Ireland.they know that to question a foreigner could result in a career ending move because of pressure from the bleeding hearts brigade

To be fair DM, he did get a big sentence fer what could be described as Not too serious offences.
Granted, what he did was totally Wrong and I'm not defending him in the least, but 5 years ?

He is a criminal regardless.its ok  to say what he's done was not that serious,but if it was any of our daughters he done it to then we might have a different view.not withstanding that,it still begs the question how did he get through the vetting process ? and why the politicians wont grow a pair of balls and tell the immigrant council of Ireland to go fuck themselves

Judges are old.He's probably a wobbly wheel that all the younger legal eagles are afraid of. What counts as sexual assault now might have been seen as flirting 30 years ago.The world is changing very fast and the old farts in the legal system are behind the times.

Unfortunately for Ireland their is this Irish national phenomenon in the psyche to go along with Watever Germany tells us Wat yo do and Ireland will be the last to wake up and will continue to open its arms to rapists an
Suicide bombers...
The Germans are sufferin from guilt because he gasses all the Jews an the romantic gypsy....

I remember years ago (80's) a neighbour and friend when we were younger was notorious for robbin cars and gettin a chase off the Gardai....he was a thorn in their side to say the least....anyways he decided he wanted to go to the US of A and needed a form to say he had no convictions stamped by the Super in Finglas.....he couldn't stamp it quick enough to get him out of the country.

Gardaí used GPS co-ordinates from the Hailo taxi app which confirmed that Uddin had travelled the three routes the women had outlined to gardaí.
This seems a tad strange and is just not adding up fer me, he sexually assaulted 3 women in a 17 day period and all of them on tracked App jobs, that to me is like just asking to be caught and sent to prison.

One of the newspapers reported that he had a low intellect and the judge gave him 'credit' for that.

When Hailo was first starting, women used to tell me how safe it was.  I used to joke they could still get raped/murdered by their driver, it'd be just easier to catch the guy afterwards.  I thought I was joking but it turns out that real life is stranger than fiction!

It's still happening though.  A young woman was telling me how a 'foreign' driver kept 'accidentally' touching her leg etc and she had to tell him to stop.  And he was very 'forward', shall we say, with his suggestions.  I told her to report him to MyTaxi and the Guards.  Even just to have it on his file.  But I doubt she will.

Maybe on reflection 5 years was a decent sentence, at least he has 5 years of peace, because if he had molested my Daughter or even messed with El Tonio's or Octy's Daughter then his fate would be sealed on his departure from jail.

What the rapeist's or molesters don't realize is that behind every Irish Chungwan is a Big Bad Ugly DAD !
My youngest daughter was the Tiny Tot at the end of the Tiny Tot's line in Panto a few years back,
she at aged 3 did her own thing and wooed the audience, she knew her Dad was there, she had no fear,
she knew that anyone who looked crossways at her had to deal with her Dad.
