A man has been jailed for 10 and a half years after he repeatedly stabbed and raped a woman who refused to have sex with him.
Rowan McKenna attacked the woman in the Gorgie area of Edinburgh after he locked her in a flat.
The 25-year-old had recently been freed from prison on four separate bail orders by a court.
At the High Court in Edinburgh, McKenna was placed on the sex offenders' register indefinitely and Lord Scott made a non-harassment order prohibiting him from contacting the rape victim.
Due to the serious charges as well as McKenna's criminal history and behaviour, the judge said he would impose an extended sentence.
After his prison sentence, McKenna will be under supervision for a further two-year period when he can be returned to prison if he breaches his license conditions.
The court heard how the attack had permanently scarred the woman who said it acted as a "daily reminder" of the rape.
