A convicted child rapist posed as a policeman to attack three girls in one hour - just six months after his release from prison.

Apeldelrazek Badran, 33, had served nine years for raping a nine-year-old girl he lured to a secluded spot.

And during his latest spate of attacks he lured a 12-year-old girl down an alleyway before sexually assaulting her and taking pictures of her semi-nude on his phone.

He also breached an order not to approach kids just six days after it expired, again posing as a cop to approach four girls in a park.

Badran, approached two schoolgirls near his home in Enfield, north London, while on his bike on January 27th this year - six months after being released from jail - and told them he was a police officer but they managed to run away.

In the second incident, an hour later at around 5.30pm, he told a 12-year-old she was suspected of shoplifting before forcing her down an alleyway, threatening her with what she thought was a knife.
