A POLISH immigrant caught by police raping an unconscious teenager after she accidentally ended up on his doorstep faces deportation along with his co-accused after they were each jailed for nearly nine years.

Police burst into the house in Hull to find Roman Smentek in bed with the girl after being alerted by her mother.

Hull Crown Court was told the university student was confused about which address she wanted after taking a taxi home from a night out in an intoxicated state.

People started trying to help the teenager, who suspects her drink was spiked, when she slumped to the pavement but she gave the wrong number of a house – which turned out to be where Smentek, 37, his co-accused Krzysztof Drozdz, 26, and other Poles were living.

Prosecutor Mark McKone said: “The door was answered by a Polish man. A man who was helping her suggested she called police. The man said: ‘No police, it’s OK, one hour, she fine.”

The teenager was sick in the garden and he and Drozdz carried her into the hallway and told the passer-by to leave.

Smentek then carried the victim – who did not appear to know what was happening – upstairs, laid her on the bed and locked the door. The passer-by, who was still trying to help, phoned the teenager’s mother and knocked on the door.

Mr McKone said: “At first they wouldn’t let him in but Drozdz opened the door, said she was sleeping and he could go. Smentek came out and was aggressive, saying: ‘My house, you leave now.’

“Drozdz went outside. The passer-by asked why Smentek had locked the door. Drozdz shrugged his shoulders and said: ‘It’s men’ suggesting he knew that Smentek was having sex with her. Drozdz then went back into the bedroom.

“The passer-by went upstairs and saw Smentek under the covers. Drozdz was sitting on the same bed using the laptop.”

The passer-by was then taken outside and locked out of the house.
