An Abbey Wood paedophile who repeatedly raped schoolgirl girl over a three-year period has been jailed for 18 years.
Alex Baah, 42, of Bolstall Hill, began raping the girl when she was just 13 at a house in New Addington, paying her £2 to take off her knickers.
The victim, who cannot be named for legal reasons, complained to police in August 2013 when she was aged 15, telling officers that she remembered being raped by Baah when she was 12.
The girl, who knew Baah by his middle name of Kwame, told the court how Baah would give her £2 extra when she took off her knickers and put them under her pillow.
Baah, originally from Ghana, denied ever touching the girl sexually.
He was found guilty of two counts of rape between 2008 and 2013 at The Old Bailey.
