A food delivery driver has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison after being found guilty of sexually assaulting two women at their homes in Maidstone in separate incidents.

The offences began on 26 June 2025, when Shafiullah Rasooli arrived at the home of a woman who had ordered food through an online delivery service. When the victim opened the door to receive her order, Rasooli allegedly began making inappropriate and unsettling remarks. Instead of completing the delivery and leaving, he forced his way inside the property and sexually assaulted the woman. After leaving the address, he later returned and committed another sexual offence against the same victim. During this encounter, he also took the woman’s phone and entered his own contact details into it. In the days that followed, Rasooli repeatedly called the victim, actions that caused her significant fear and emotional distress.

Just a week later, on 3 July 2025, Rasooli was involved in another disturbing incident while carrying out a separate food delivery. After arriving at a different address in Maidstone, he began making indecent comments to the woman who answered the door. He asked intrusive questions about her personal life, including her relationship status, before sexually assaulting her.

Following investigations into both incidents, the 29-year-old, who lived on St Peter’s Street in Maidstone, was arrested and charged with three counts of sexual assault. Rasooli denied the accusations during court proceedings, but after a trial at Sevenoaks Magistrates’ Court he was found guilty.

On Wednesday, 25 February 2026, Rasooli was sentenced at Maidstone Crown Court to two and a half years in prison for his crimes. In addition to the custodial sentence, the court also imposed a Sexual Harm Prevention Order, a legal measure designed to place restrictions on him in the future in order to reduce the risk of further offences and protect potential victims.
