Police commended the young woman for her bravery in coming forward
A 32-year old man convicted by a jury of raping a drunk female in a park in Newtownards was handed a seven-year sentence on Tuesday.
As he imposed the sentence, Judge Miller said: "The victim was vulnerable through her intoxicated state and the defendant, who was a stranger to her, deliberately took advantage of this to commit the offence." During Tuesday's sentencing, Judge Miller said: "Her memory of what happened once she got to the park was confined to waking up and seeing the defendant on top having sex with her and being aware of the other two men standing and laughing."
He subsequently presented police with several versions of what he claimed happened - including how he had attempted to have intercourse with the girl after she instigated sexual activity - which were rejected by the jury. As well as jailing Burbulas and placing him in the Sex Offenders Register, Judge Miller also made him the subject of a ten-year Sexual Offences Prevention Order.
