In 2020, Reynhard Sinaga was sentenced for life for 159 counts of rape and other sexual offences, against 48 men. But police found evidence relating to more than 200 victims, many of whom remain unidentified.

One of Sinaga’s victims, Daniel, speaks for the first time to break the silence that surrounds male rape. His powerful testimony contributes to an important national conversation in the UK, where sexual violence against men remains one of the most underreported crimes.

  1. ive been SA'ed by an elder of my community… i didnt even know what sex was at that time.. and as i get know about it.. i started to blame myself for everything… cuz he even had a family… he youngest son was like my own little brother…. i remember telling him about it… now he also got the trauma.. he doesnt even talk to me anymore like he used to do.. (note: i was 12 and his son was 9 at that time)

  2. Your so strong..thank you for sharing your story your bravery and resilience is so inspiring and incredible…I pray you continue to fight and live your best life…🫂🫂💙🙏

  3. I don’t know why you’d tell people that something so awful when they could go through life never knowing & not having to deal with the trauma. I get that he’d benefit from getting tested for STDs but otherwise, what’s the benefit to the victim?

  4. Seeing you with your dad and hearing him brought tears to my eyes. You are very brave and I'm privileged to have seen your video. Thank you so much for sharing this difficult experience and I truly hope that you are well. ❤️

  5. Thank you so much for sharing this horrible abuse what happend to you. I feel gratefull for the support you offer for others who might encounter the same. The strenght you have to share this, is admirable. Please give yourself the chance to feel this about yourself too. All my respect, honour and love to you ❤

  6. I was a 9 year old victim of rape by an older male cousin. He thought it was just fun and games and didn't feel bad at all. I was afraid to tell anyone because I thought it was my fault. It took years for me to be able to forgive myself. As an older man now I still struggle with intimacy and can't talk about it. I have attempted suicide 2 times and still think about suicide a lot. My cousin is a successful man in my community and is viewed as a tough macho man while I am made fun of for being gay. It is really not fair but I know that ultimately God will be the one to sort it out. I see these videos and I feel so sorry for these men because I can feel their pain because I have it too. Be strong if you have been a victim and don't blame yourself. Its not your fault you were just a child.

  7. Like your father. I am proud that you were brave enough to share your story. I am just one person but I know others would share my thoughts. You being open, honesty and so strong will help others, immensely. Thank you for being so brave to share. Tou are truly a remarkable person.

  8. I don’t understand what he is saying….. i know he got raped but he is not saying who did that what relationship with him and how he know him why not saying . Somebody please explain me as i am not native English maybe thats why i don’t understand

  9. I have been sexually harassed/assaulted by my own relatives many times when I was a kid 😢 I’m in late 20s but still it haunts me they are married settled but my life is ruined I have spent many sleepless nights crying 😢 self harm was normal was me cut my fingers arms with blades and broken glasses then met someone and he turned into an animal had to stay with this monster for 3 years he made my life hell I will just say please keep an eye on your kids talk to them make them feel safe nobody has done that for me I’m even crying now 😢 my life is over but I just wants to say keep your kids safe do not trust anyone i don’t have energy to write anything else it’s just 10% of what happened to me 😢 can’t even talk about the rest 90% I just can’t

  10. The victims have to take courage and report this damn thing, I think it's incredible, it's rubbish, which claims to be from a Christian family, this is rubbish that was imported to England.

  11. God be with you for being so strong. As a woman, I agree that assaults on men are not taken serious enough. I’m so thankful for your courage, and giving a insight to the world that it is different for a man than it is for a woman. Man is seen as a persona of strength, courage, and protection. The idea of a man being overpowered by another is act of dominance, but Ray did what he did in cowardice way. I do not believe what happened to Daniel diminishes his manhood at all, but someone taking advantage of someone else unconscious or not is a level of low that no human being should be subjected to.

  12. I lost my virginity through date rape at 16 I don’t remember the attack you wake up confused and scared it went to court and he was found not guilty this stuff never leaves you xx as a result I’ve struggled with adiction I’m 31 now in an out of rehabs x

  13. You are so brave, sir! Thank you for your courage to tell us your story, because you are helping fellow victims to take strength and step forward and potentially save lives.

    I had a boyfriend who had been enabling my alcohol addiction, had gladly waited until I drank myself to the degree of blacking out and he had done all sorts of things with my body while I was unconscious. One night I woke up, in the middle of the night, to him jerking off standing above me on the bed. I froze. Never made a sound. He finished and as if nothing had happened he went on playing his video games till morning. I was in total denial throughout the following days. I was really addicted to alcohol at that time, so I couldn’t just stop drinking all at once, additionally I was living with him because my own house was under renovation. So I contacted some friends and also asked for advice from a coach (shoutout to PsychopathExposure). Following their advice I made voice recordings on my phone throughout the following nights. It was fruitless. A month later I cought something on the recordings. 🥺😭 At that moment I knew that I wasn’t crazy, and it wasn’t the alcohol induced imagination of mine making me think that this mand was capable of taking advantage of me. But! It turned out that while we were having a full on relationship, he was cheating on me throughout the whole time and I only learned about it in the last week of my stay (my house had become habitable by that time).

    I confronted him with the cheating. He had the audacity to be angry that I found it out. Showing no remorse whatsoever.

    He doesn’t know that I know that he had taken advantage of me several times while we were together (11 montsh all together), and I am quite sure that it wasn’t always jerking off. Because I know my body, and it showed signs of sex, though I know that we didn’t have sex those nights. In fact, during the last two montsh it was “no sex at all” situation. So it is 99.99% chance that I had been raped several times. And I don’t remember any of it. I only have proof of one jerking off while I’m sleeping, plus my memory of that particular night when I woke up.

    I have blocked him everywhere. But have never confronted him with this to this day, and have never gone to the police.

    And I am a woman.

    So, my heart breaks for the victims, all of’em.

    And You, sir, you are their voice!

    May all the gods and spiritual powers bless your heart! 💓

  14. His story don’t add up. From alleyway peeing (no toilets in the restaurant?) then from alleyway to someone’s house. Did the grapist not proposition him to get him to walk back with him somehow?
