Facebook Rapist

Thabo Bester is referred to as the "Facebook rapist" because he used the social media platform to trap his victims.

Facebook is failing to rein in a "tsunami" of hate posts inflaming ethnic tensions in India's Assam state, campaign group Avaaz said on Wednesday, with content about "criminals", "rapists", "terrorists" and "dogs" shared almost 100,000 times.

A Singaporean serial rapist who met his victims using a Facebook dating app is facing one of the harshest jail terms ever sought by prosecutors in the city-state, a newspaper reported today. Prosecutors demanded a 45-year jail term for Azuar Ahamad, 41, who pleaded guilty yesterday to raping three women and sexually assaulting a fourth.
