A man from High Wycombe has been jailed for six years after being found guilty of raping a woman in Buckinghamshire.
Zachariah Kotlarz attacked the victim, who was 20 at the time, in the early hours of 12 November 2016.
Kotlarz, aged 28, of Brambleside, Loudwater, High Wycombe, was charged on 9 June 2020.
Following a five-day trial at Amersham Crown Court, a unanimous jury convicted Kotlarz on Friday (26/11).
Kotlarz was sentenced the same day, and was ordered to sign the sex offenders' register for life.
Investigating officer Detective Constable Lynda Stearman, of Milton Keynes CID, said:
“I would like to pay tribute to the victim for coming forward and speaking out against her abuser and giving evidence that led to his conviction.
“I hope that this case shows that time should be no barrier for offenders to be brought to justice when they sexually abuse others.
“If you have been a victim of any type of sexual abuse, please do report it.
“If you are in immediate danger please call 999, if you wish to make a report then you can call 101 or you can report online."
