A pub landlord has been jailed for nine years for raping a man who fell asleep in his bar. John Coyne, 56, who ran the Prince of Wales pub in Harrow Road, central London, attacked his 25-year-old victim who had fallen unconscious after a night of drinking in October last year. Coyne was convicted of rape and engaging in sexual activity without consent and jailed at Blackfriars Crown Court yesterday. The jury heard the victim, who is heterosexual, had been on a night out with friends after finishing work and ended the night at Coyne's pub where he fell asleep on a sofa. The victim then woke at around 3am to find Coyne raping him. Coyne fled and the victim called the police, who seized CCTV footage from the venue that captured the landlord committing his offences. He still denied the crimes but was found guilty by a jury. Police have today urged people to contact them if they believe they have also been attacked by the rapist pub landlord. Detective Constable Neil Hume, the officer in the case, said following the sentencing: 'Coyne abused his position as a landlord of a pub to take advantage of an unconscious customer and showed no remorse. 'I would applaud the victim's bravery attending court and hope that the sentence sends out a clear message.' Detective Inspector Neil Smithson, the senior investigating officer, added: 'The Metropolitan Police are committed to prosecuting sexual offenders. Attack: The victim had been on a night out with friends after finishing work and ended the night at Coyne's pub in Harrow Road, pictured, where he woke to find Coyne raping him . 'Coyne preyed on an unconscious customer whilst in his own pub and I would encourage anyone who believes they may have been a victim at the hands of Coyne to come forward.' The landlord was sentenced to nine years in prison for rape and five   years for causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent, to be served concurrently.
