A serving Metropolitan Police officer faces a lengthy jail sentence in the Caribbean after he was found guilty of raping a woman.

Constable Lee Martin-Cramp used his job to dupe his victim into trusting him before carrying out the "most deplorable" attack while on holiday on Antigua in May 2015.

The Pc, 26, was convicted by a jury at Antigua's High Court on Thursday after being extradited to the island in what is reported to be a legal first.

Martin-Cramp is expected to be sentenced on July 11.

The officer, who was attached to the Met's Merton borough, is suspended from duties and will be subject to expedited misconduct proceedings, the force said.
