A chilling message has been daubed on the gates of lotto rapist [name withheld]’s mansion warning him: “Leave or Die.”
Now security at his luxury property – already costing the taxpayer up to £30,000 a week – has been stepped up.
The sex offender, who won £7.2million in August 2004 while serving life for rape, is said to be in fear of his life.
