Man jailed after being convicted of sexual crimes against women in Falkirk
A 51-year-old man has been jailed for two years and six months after being convicted of sexual crimes against a woman in the Falkirk area.
Jaswinder Singh, who was working as a taxi driver, picked up the woman and sexually assaulted her on Sunday, 4 February, 2024.
Singh was sentenced at Falkirk Sheriff Court on Tuesday, 25 March, 2025.
Detective Sergeant Stewart Walton from the Forth Valley Public Protection Unit said: “Jaswinder Singth was in a position of trust when he took advantage of this woman who she had trusted to make sure she got home safely. He abused that trust and his actions are sickening.
“I would like to commend his victim for her strength in coming forward. Her information was essential in helping us build the case against Singh and our thoughts remain with her. I hope this outcome provides some sense of closure.
"If anyone has been a victim of a sexual crime, please report it. We have detectives dedicated to investigating such offences. You can be assured that you will be fully supported by officers and our partner agencies and together we will bring the perpetrator to justice."
