A SERIAL SEX attacker who targeted random women walking alone in the early hours of the morning has lost an appeal against his conviction.
In a judgment delivered this morning, the three-judge Court of Appeal dismissed all grounds, including a complaint that the offender was unlawfully detained by gardaí following the final attack in which he grabbed a woman from behind while brandishing a knife.
