UK-based Nigerian man jailed six years for sexually assaulting underage girl
Elvis Nosakhare, a United Kingdom-based Nigerian man, has been sentenced to six years in prison for sexually assaulting the underage daughter of his girlfriend.
According to Thames Valley Police, the 41-year-old met the victim’s mother via an online dating platform before committing the offence, described as a “disgusting betrayal of trust.”
The abuse occurred within the Thames Valley area. Following investigations by the force’s Child Abuse Unit, Nosakhare was arraigned at Aylesbury Crown Court, where he was found guilty of two counts of engaging in penetrative sexual activity with a girl and three counts of non-penetrative sexual activity.
The court also ordered that Nosakhare be placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life, in addition to issuing a restraining order against him.
In a statement, Detective Constable Bryn Smith, the lead investigator, commended the victim’s courage:
“I want to commend the victim for her bravery throughout both the investigation and court proceedings. I hope that this conviction offers her some sense of justice.”
Smith added that Thames Valley Police remains committed to supporting survivors and holding offenders accountable.
Nosakhare, who resides on Sheelin Grove, Bletchley, received his sentence on July 29.
This case follows the recent conviction of Adewale Kudabo, another Nigerian sentenced to 12 months in prison in the UK last month for sexually assaulting a patient while working as a healthcare assistant at York Hospital.

A 26-year-old man with a documented history of mental health challenges and violent behaviour has been arrested after allegedly abducting a 3-year-old girl from a shopping mall in Virginia.
The incident occurred on July 18 at the Fair Oaks Shopping Center and was captured on surveillance video. According to authorities, Andres Caceres Jaldin was seen picking up the child and walking away with her after she briefly wandered away from an indoor play area.
The toddler’s father, who had been supervising nearby, noticed she was missing and quickly alerted his wife, who was shopping inside the JCPenney store. Acting swiftly, the mother spotted Jaldin on the second floor carrying their daughter and immediately confronted him.
Court documents reveal that Jaldin returned the child without resistance, claiming he was simply trying to help her find her parents.
Following the encounter, Jaldin fled the mall in a vehicle later discovered to have been stolen from a nearby auto shop. Police were able to trace the vehicle to a hotel in Chantilly, where Jaldin was taken into custody.
Authorities later confirmed that Jaldin has a troubled history involving multiple allegations of violence against members of his own family. In 2024, he faced charges including assault and battery, malicious wounding, and property damage. While out on bail, he was reportedly involved in another assault incident.
A psychiatric evaluation during prior legal proceedings diagnosed him with schizophrenia. Despite the serious nature of the earlier charges, all of them were eventually dropped.
Jaldin now faces new charges of abduction of a minor and grand larceny. He is currently being held at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center without bond. Fortunately, the child was unharmed in the incident.
