AirAsia pilot convicted of Perth rape

A MALAYSIAN  airline pilot has been found guilty of repeatedly raping a woman at knifepoint after he broke into her Perth home 21 years ago.

Alfred Gerard Eravelly, 50, broke into the victim’s Scarborough home in the early hours of March 9, 1996, then tied her up and sexually assaulted her, leaving behind DNA that was later analysed and led to his arrest.

He was charged with five counts of aggravated sexual penetration without consent and one count each of burglary, unlawful detention and unlawful wounding after he flew back to Australia from Kuala Lumpur in February last year.

After a six-day trial in the District Court of WA, he was convicted of all charges and will be sentenced on June 22.
