Reynhard Sinaga, the Perpetrator of Raping Dozens of Men Sentenced to Life in Manchester, a PhD Student and Active in Church

Kapanlagi.com - Reynhard Sinaga suddenly became a topic of conversation in the online world. Not only in Indonesia, but also in England and other countries. This Indonesian man was recently sentenced to life imprisonment after allegedly committing multiple acts of rape against dozens of men in Manchester, England.

Who is Reynhard Sinaga actually?

As reported by Manchester Evening News, Reynhard is a PhD student who came to Manchester from Indonesia in 2007. He is originally from Jambi, Sumatra.

1. Raised Conservatively

Reynhard was raised with conservative Catholicism by his relatively well-off parents. His father was a banker.

Unbeknownst to them, their son was a homosexual or gay. Of course, while in Indonesia, Reynhard could not freely express his sexual orientation. It was only when he came to England that he felt comfortable and open about being gay.

2. PhD Studies

Coming from a wealthy family, it's no surprise that Reynhard's parents supported his life in England, including paying for his education.

Initially, Reynhard studied Sociology at the University of Manchester. He then pursued a PhD in Human Geography at the University of Leeds. Throughout his PhD studies, Reynhard chose to stay in Manchester.

3. Active in Church

During college, Reynhard was well received by his fellow students and his apartment mate. He was also known as an active figure in the Anglican church. None of his friends knew about Reynhard's other side.

Reynhard was also said to have lived in a student dormitory located in Montana House, near Gay Village. It was there that he allegedly started his rape activities.
