Groping Stoke-on-Trent taxi driver jailed after grabbing mum's breast

Taxi driver Najibullah Hakani has been jailed after groping a passenger's breast under her clothing.

The 27-year-old was taking the young mum and her son to a friend's house in North Staffordshire when he pulled off the A500 and told her to get in the front seat.

The frightened woman did as she was told and the defendant put his hand inside her top and cupped her breast. He told her not to tell anyone about the assault.

But she reported the incident to the police and the defendant's DNA was found on the victim's clothing.

Now Hakani, of Osborne Road, Hartshill, has been jailed for two years at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court after being convicted of sexual assault.

In a victim statement, the woman said: "I felt dirty. I felt it was my fault. I blamed myself. I tried to be the same girl, happy and smiley. I was left feeling depressed. I tried to take my own life by taking an overdose. I felt so worthless. My life changed. My emotions were everywhere and I could not control them.

"I am currently undergoing therapy. My mental health now feels stable.

"I let this man's actions get the better of me and take control of my life. I now have justice and will continue to fight every day to live a happy, positive and peaceful life."

The defendant maintains his innocence. He is no longer able to work as a taxi driver.

Anis Ali, mitigating, said: "He has lost everything by virtue of his conviction. He will carry with him the stigma that this offence carries. He is embarrassed and feels ashamed. He has aspirations to go to university.

"He has a viable business and he is doing really well. He could provide compensation as a direct alternative to the imposition of an immediate custodial sentence.

"Several people are reliant on the jobs he provides. The consequences of an immediate custodial sentence are dire."

But Recorder Julian Taylor jailed Hakani and placed him on the Sex Offenders' Register for 10 years.

Recorder Taylor said: "The defendant started a conversation which was sexualised and asked her questions about her sex life and whether she used sexual toys. She was disgusted, particularly with her young child in the car.

"He stopped the car and asked her to get in the front seat. She felt she had no alternative. She could not leave the car because of the presence of her son. The defendant put his hand under her clothing and cupped her left breast.

"The main aggravating feature is the presence of the child in the car when the sexualised comments were made and the sexual assault took place.

"The defendant is a risk to females because of his behaviour. The appropriate punishment can only be achieved by an immediate custodial sentence."

Not if the fella was born here.

That said he will never work in our trade again, and be on the sexual offenders list for 10 years.
