A Polish woman has been sentenced to prison after carrying out two separate sexual assaults in Glasgow, including an attack on a sleeping man and a disturbing incident involving a 13-year-old boy on a busy public bus.
Ewa Nosalska appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court where she was jailed following convictions for both offences. The cases painted a deeply troubling picture of a woman who carried out brazen sexual attacks in very different settings.
The first incident involved Nosalska performing a sex act on a man while he slept, completely unaware of what was happening to him. The attack was a serious violation that left the victim shaken when he discovered what had taken place.
The second offence was equally disturbing. Nosalska sexually assaulted a 13-year-old boy while travelling on a bus in Glasgow, an attack that took place in plain sight on a busy public route. The fact that other passengers were present made the brazen nature of the assault all the more shocking.
The case drew significant attention given the nature of both offences and the vulnerability of the victims involved, particularly the teenage boy who was just 13 years old at the time of the attack.
Nosalska was convicted on both charges and the sheriff handed down a custodial sentence, reflecting the seriousness of the crimes. Sexual offences of this nature carry significant penalties under Scots law, and the court made clear that the behaviour was completely unacceptable.
Police Scotland and prosecutors were praised for bringing the case to court and securing convictions on both counts. Victim support organisations have highlighted how cases like this can have a lasting psychological impact on those targeted, particularly younger victims who may struggle to process what happened to them.
The case is a reminder that sexual assault is not exclusively carried out by men against women, and that male victims, including young boys, can face significant barriers when it comes to reporting abuse or being believed. Campaigners have long called for greater awareness around male victimhood in sexual offence cases.
Nosalska will now serve her sentence in custody.
Absolutely disgusting behaviour, hope she rots in that cell tbh. People like this make me sick regardless of gender. Throw away the key.
