A brutal Dundee rapist, Patryk Kulczynski, has been found guilty of systematically assaulting a lady in Dundee over a span of five years. Following a 13-day trial at The High Court in Dundee, Patryk Kulczynski was unanimously found guilty by jury of 10 distinct charges on Friday.
The 36-year-old was convicted of five rapes, including one committed days after his apprehension by police, violating bail conditions established to safeguard his victim.
Patryk Kulczynski is currently included on the sex offenders register and will stay incarcerated until his sentencing next month.
Years of sex offences
Almost all of Patryk Kulczynski’s offending took place at a block of flats in Adamson Court in Dundee.
On an occasion in 2018, he assaulted a woman by pushing her forwards, removing her lower clothing and then raping her.
From January 2019 to May 2022 he raped her three more times.
In July 2022, he sexually assaulted her again with the intention of raping her.
At a different flat in the block, he shouted at the woman, seized her by the arms, pulled her to the floor and dragged her along the floor into the common stairwell.
He struggled with his victim, pushed and pulled her and caused her to fall down a flight of stairs, leaving her injured.
He pulled her clothing as he tried to sexually assault her.
Ignored court-imposed protective measures
Four days later, he appeared in court and was released on bail but breached the special condition to leave his victim alone by being in her company that Christmas Eve.
Patryk Kulczynski appeared from custody on Boxing Day in 2022 and was released by the court again.
While subject to special bail conditions, Patryk Kulczynski raped the woman again over the New Year period into 2023, while she was sleeping.
He was convicted of breaching the protective bail conditions imposed by Dundee Sheriff Court on this occasion too.
Patryk Kulczynski was also found guilty of sexually assaulting another woman at the flat in Adamson Court in either 2018 or 2019.
He seized hold of her breasts, pushed her onto a bed, lay on top of her and made sexual remarks about her body.
Behind bars
Throughout his trial, Patryk Kulczynski was aided in the dock by a Polish interpreter.
Neither of his victims can be identified for legal reasons.
The first offender has been on remand in HMP Perth since January 5 last year
Judge Lord Harrower placed him on the sex offenders register and further remanded him while background reports are prepared ahead of sentencing.
