POLICE believe that there could be more victims who were sexually abused by a child rapist with links to Gloucestershire.
Lorry driver Adam Aitken, 28, of Kinnears Walk, Orton Goldhay, was sentenced to 13 years imprisonment at Peterborough Crown Court today (October 28) after previously pleading guilty to six serious sexual offences against children.
The court heard how Aitken carried out sexual abuse, including rape, on his young male victims dating back to 2008.
Senior investigating officer from Cambridgeshire Constabulary’s Public Protection Department, Detective Chief Inspector Jon McAdam, said: “Given the level of offending shown by Aitken, it is anticipated there could be other victims.
"We believe he had links to the Bedfordshire, Gloucestershire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire, Surrey, West Yorkshire and Scotland areas.
“We have specially trained officers available to anyone would like to discuss their individual case, please call the Operation Dunholt team at Cambridgeshire Constabulary on 101.”
Aitken was also put on the Sex Offenders Register and made subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order.
