Man sentenced for violent and sexual offences
A 57-year-old man has been sentenced to nine years in prison after being convicted of violence and sexual offences.
Brian McGlashan committed these crimes against three women between 1996 and 2019 at addresses in the Perthshire area.
He was found guilty of the offences, including rape and assault, following a trial at the High Court in Dundee on Wednesday, 5 June, 2024.
He was sentenced today, Wednesday, 3 July 2024, at the High Court in Paisley and placed on the sex offenders register indefinitely.
Detective Constable Ranald Bowie said: “McGlashan is a violent individual who will now face the consequences of his despicable actions.
“My thoughts are with these women who showed immense strength in coming forward and assisting our investigation.
“We take reports of such offences seriously, regardless of how much time has passed and work to support victims. I would encourage anyone who has been impacted by this type of crime to report it.”
