“Throughout the course of the investigation Kivindyo denied any responsibility for his actions and showed no remorse. His continued denial led to the victim having to give evidence at trial and relive the distressing events of the incident.
“I would like to thank the victim for her bravery and courage throughout the course of the investigation and that of the numerous witnesses who supported the investigation and subsequently gave evidence at trial. I hope that the sentence Kivindyo received brings them some comfort.”
Kivindyo was sentenced at Reading Crown Court on Monday, August 16, to eight years’ imprisonment.
