A double rapist caught by chance years later through a DNA sample has been jailed for seven-and-a-half years. <\/p>\n
Peter Hendry, 41, from Springburn in Glasgow, attacked the two women, who were working as prostitutes, in Rutherglen in 2004 and 2007. <\/p>\n
He avoided capture until a former partner accused him of domestic abuse in 2011. DNA samples were taken which matched with both attacks. <\/p>\n
Hendry, who denied the charges, was found guilty on a unanimous verdict. <\/p>\n
Solicitor advocate Murray Macara QC, who represented the fork-lift truck driver, told the court that his client had \"constantly and consistently maintained that he did not rape these two women\". <\/p>\n
Both women had told how Hendry picked them up and drove them to a deserted industrial estate. <\/p>\n
A 33-year-old woman told the trial that he took her there in September 2004, pinned her down and raped her, before leaving her \"like a bit of trash\". <\/p>\n
The woman reported the incident to police, but Hendry remained at large. <\/p>\n
He carried out a similar attack on a 29-year-old woman in July 2007. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
