Albania sentences two more Britons for sexual abuse of orphans

Wed, 13 Jan 2010

Tirana - An Albanian court has sentenced two British nationals to a total of 35 years in jail for sexual abuse of children in an orphanage they operated, local reports said Wednesday. The sentencing of Dino Kristudulu, 45, to 20 years in prison and Robin Arnold, 56, to 15 years followed a November 2008 verdict which has sentenced Scotsman David Brown, 58, to 20 years in the same case.

The three men were sentenced for the sexual abuse of boys aged between 6 and 9, in an orphanage run by Brown's His Kids foundation in Tirana, which he established in 1999, during the war in Kosovo.

All three will then be expelled from Albania after they serve their time in maximum security prisons, reports said. The orphanage was shut down in 2006, a year after one of its victims revealed to police that he was abused.

Two more people are still on trial in the case.
