River City actor Iain Robertson sentenced after being convicted of raping one woman and assaulting others

The former River City star was found guilty last month of a total of five offences against three women between 2004 and 2019.

He raped one of the women some time between 2018 and 2019, and also sexually assaulted her on a separate occasion.

At the High Court in Edinburgh on Thursday judge Lady Drummond sentenced the 45-year-old to nine years in prison, plus an additional three-year supervision period.

He was also added to the sex offenders’ register indefinitely, and made subject to indefinite non-harassment orders.

Robertson, who was attending via videolink from prison dressed in a blue top, showed no reaction as the sentence was handed down.
