Two men who tried to claim that they had consensual sex with a 17-year-old girl have been found guilty of multiple rapes by the Northampton Crown Court.
Identified as Tosin Dada, 34, previously of Knox Road, Wellingborough, and Solomon Ibukun Adebiyi, 39, previously of Stanley Street, Northampton, they were both charged with three counts of rape each in connection with the offence on March 12, 2022.
Their 9-day trial ended last week with both men being found unanimously guilty by the jury on all charges after eight hours of deliberation.
The development was confirmed in a Facebook post by the Northamptonshire Police.
Both men were remanded into custody ahead of sentencing at Northampton Crown Court on October 25, 2024.
