A SOUTH Yorkshire mum raped by a refugee with a string of convictions has urged Home Secretary Charles Clarke to quit.
Somali refugee Abdulrahmam Osman grabbed his victim from behind, held a knife to her face and dragged her into bushes near St George's Church on Broad Lane in Sheffield city centre in September 2004 after he followed her from the Corporation nightclu
b. Osman, of Wellfield Close, Upperthorpe, was jailed for nine years at Sheffield Crown Court last April.
Osman, described by a judge as "a real danger to the community" had posed a continuing threat since arriving in the country in 2001.
He was jailed in 2002 for robbery, convicted two years later of carrying a knife and was then jailed for a month for threatening behaviour. Two months before the rape he exposed himself to a 19-year-old girl.
The rape victim, a nursing auxiliary now aged 40 who lives in Sheffield, said: "Clarke must go. It is not something he should even be considering, it is a simple, 'Yes I was wrong' and quit.
"My attacker should not have even been in the country. What happened to me is a prime example of incompetence and if it happened to me then it has happened to lots more and will continue to happen until the Government does something."
