London, Aug 6 (ANI): The brother of football ace Titus Bramble, Tesfaye has been jailed for four and a half years for raping a teenage girl.
Thirty-one year-old former player for Southend United, Stockport County and Stevenage was on a night out with his brother Titus, who plays for Premier League Sunderland, when he raped the 19-year-old girl.
The jury heard that after his arrest Bramble said that the women he met on nights out 'don't just come back to the hotel to go to sleep, they come back for sex'.
Leeds Crown Court, Judge Geoffrey Marson condemned him for his arrogant presumption.
"There was only one reason why you went back to the room and that was to have sexual intercourse with her," the Daily Mail quoted Marson, as saying.
"I am entirely satisfied she was asleep at the time and was incapable of giving her consent and you knew it," Marson said said.
"You, and those involved in such activities, seem to have an attitude borne out by the contents of the pre-sentence report that says when young women go back to hotels in those circumstances with footballers, they go back for one reason only and that is to have sexual intercourse," the judge said.
"They have a right to be protected and she had a right to be there and to be left alone and you abused it," the judge added. (ANI)
