Scarsdale Man Charged with Rape and Sex Abuse

rahimoonThe Daily News is reporting that the son of a Pakistani diplomat who lives in Scarsdale was charged with raping a 13-year-old Bronx girl and sexually abusing her friend. The suspect's father, Muhammad Rahimoon is a community/welfare counselor for the Pakistani government.

According to the report, Mehmood Rahimoon (Rey), age 20, of Scarsdale met the victim on an app called Whisper in October of this year. He contacted the girl several times before meeting her in October. On December 1, Rey and the girl had sex in a room at the River Road Motor Inn on Webster Avenue in Woodlawn.

Rey is also charged with forcing a 13 year-old friend of the victim to touch his private parts, according to prosecutors. At the time, the girl's father was waiting at her school to pick up his daughter and the victim. When her dad called, the friend said that she and the victim were working out in the park with their running club. Rahimoon got on the phone and told the father that the girls would be back at school soon.

That night, the friend told her dad what happened and he called the police. In order to catch Rahimoon, detectives set up a meeting with him in upper Manhattan on Tuesday night 12-8-15. Rahimoon drove a car with consul license plates to the liaison where he was arrested.

Rey does not have diplomatic immunity. Prosecutors say he confessed and was charged with raping a minor, sex abuse, sexual misconduct, and endangering the welfare of a child. His bail was set at a $20,000 bond or $10,000 in cash. Rey's sister said he is currently studying business at Westchester Community College.
