Barzan Nawshowani was jailed for six years in February. The Crown Office challenged the sentence, with Scotland's senior law officer Dorothy Bain KC arguing it was unduly lenient.
A man who pretended to be a taxi driver before abducting and raping a woman in a barber shop has had his prison sentence increased by appeal judges. Barzan Nawshowani, 38, posed as a cabbie to pick up his victim, 20, and her friend after a night out in Glasgow city centre in August 2022. After dropping off one of the women in Govan, Nawshowani returned to Duke Street in the east end of the city and took his victim into the barber shop where he worked.
Original sentencing judge Lord Colbeck stated that the woman had suffered 'psychological harm' as a result of the attack. The judge highlighted that Nawshowani targeted someone who was 'vulnerable' through her consumption of alcohol. He noted that Nawshowani accepted 'no responsibility' for the rape and instead blamed the victim by 'accusing her of lying about what happened'.
