Rapist shaved off woman's hair and scraped face with sandpaper
Andrew Currie attacked his victim at his home in East Ayrshire on Christmas Eve.
A sex attacker scoured a woman's face with sandpaper before raping her on Christmas Eve.
Andrew Currie also shaved his victim's hair and left her bleeding following the assault, during which he told her no one was going to want her again.
Jailing him for six years, judge Lord Ericht told the High Court in Edinburgh that on one assessment he fell into a high category of risk for further sexual offending.
He ordered Currie be kept under supervision for a further two-year period over the "violent rape" and told him he would be on the sex offenders register indefinitely.
The 33-year-old victim said she had been at Currie's home in Dalmellington, East Ayrshire, when he launched the attack on her.
The woman said she had been getting ready to leave after Currie took amphetamine and played dance music.
She told the High Court in Edinburgh: "He was taking what I believe to be amphetamines at the time.
"Basically he was using a razor blade, chopping up amphetamines.
"He just seemed really quiet, walking around the room, constantly picking things up playing with them in his hands."
The woman said she was grabbed by the back of the neck and he started shaving her hair with clippers, adding: "Basically making the point that if I was going to leave no one was going to want me.
"I went to move away but with there being no guard on the clippers they dug into my head and I started to bleed a little."
She said she was pushed back and grabbed by the neck and was put on a settee, where Currie then scraped sandpaper across her face.
The woman told advocate depute Lisa Gillespie that it felt "awful". She said: "It took the skin off."
She said she was punched and then felt "quite a sharp stabbing pain" in her leg, adding: "It was more than one. It was twice in the same leg in the same place."
The woman said she did not see what had been used to cause the pain to her leg.
She said: "I did start shouting for help at that point."
Her attacker then left the house on Merrick Drive and the woman spoke to her GP, who phoned police.
Currie, 50, had denied raping the woman on Christmas Eve last year but was found guilty of the offence at an earlier trial.
He was convicted of grabbing her by the body, forcing her over a settee and shaving her hair with clippers, pinning her down on a sofa and repeatedly rubbing sandpaper against her face, punching her, striking her with a sharp implement and forcing her legs apart and raping her.
Defence counsel Emma Toner said Currie maintained his innocence.
