Chef tortured, raped and urinated on by hairdresser during seven-hour ordeal in his own home

A hairdresser has been jailed after raping, torturing and urinating on a chef in his own home.

Joseph O'Reilly, 37, was sentenced to eight years imprisonment for a seven-hour attack on the man in his Paisley flat.

The High Court in Stirling heard how he tied the victim to the bed, cut off his hair, stuffed it in his mouth then urinated on him.

O'Reilly and James Mair, 40, came across the 36-year-old victim, who cannot be named, at a taxi rank in Glasgow, the BBC reported.


After discovering that the Polish man lived alone in Paisley, O'Reilly pretended he lived there too, and the men shared a taxi home.

The pair were invited into the chef's flat to share some vodka shots before O'Reilly turned on the victim and tied him to the bed using an old TV cable.

The victim, through an interpreter, told the court that O'Reilly laughed on finding out he was gay and asked if he liked certain acts.

O'Reilly then proceeded to orally rape him twice, cut and torture him before robbing him of his phone and bank card, demanding the PIN.

On leaving the flat, O'Reilly told the victim he would kill him if he notified the police or gave him the wrong PIN.
