Two Indian immigrants have been convicted and jailed for raping a prostitute in Swindon in February, and face deportation to India after serving half their sentence.Arvinder Singh and Karnail Singh, based in Southall, were sentenced to imprisonment last week after a jury found them guilty of brutal attack on the unnamed prostitute. Arvinder, 22, was jailed for eight years while Karnail was imprisoned for seven years.The two were electrical workers and came to Swindon to work at a property on Manchester Road. On February 6, they reportedly lured a prostitute inside the property and attacked her.After dragging her upstairs Arvinder pulled out a clump of her hair while Karnail slammed a sash window shut on her fingers as she tried to get away. Both men then raped the woman, first forcing her to perform oral sex on them and then having intercourse.Police who examined the scene a few days later recovered a condom from a flat roof at the back to the house. It contained DNA linking Karnail and Arvinder to the attack.After arrest, they both denied having sex with her even after being presented with the forensic findings. But at trial they said the prostitute consented to sex after trying to cheat them out of money.
