The young girl felt ready to reveal the full extent of the abuse one year later and an investigation was launched.

Kedienhon was arrested in early 2017 but denied all the offences.

He stood trial at Peterborough Crown Court from December 11 where he was found guilty of rape and two charges of sexual assault.

Kedienhon was yesterday (Monday, February 4) jailed for a total of 15 years.

He was also made the subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) for a period of 15 years and put on the Sex Offenders Register for life.

The SHPO prevents Kedienhon from having any unsupervised contact with children under 18 and having any voluntary or paid activity with people under 18.

DC Andrea Dollard, who investigated, said: “Kedienhon’s offences have had a huge impact on the victim.

“Despite this, she was very brave in coming forward and remaining patient throughout a long and difficult investigation.

“The victim can now finally receive the help she needs to move forward into what little she has left of her childhood. I hope she is now able to find some closure from this traumatic period of her life.

“Regardless of when it happened, we will always take reports of child sex abuse very seriously.”
