The man and his accomplice, who battered three boys who were with the girl, 15, gave a graphic account on the mobile phone he stole from her in west Belfast. Chief Superintendent Ken Henning said: "The individual who carried out the rape made a phone call and sent a text message to the girl's mother.

"She thought it was a prankster, but then it began to sink in and it became very apparent that this actually happened."
