(TJVNEWS.COM) A 35-year-old Congolese man named Fiston Ngoy allegedly raped a woman on a Philadelphia train while other passengers stood by and filmed on their phones.

Police say the illegal immigrant pestered the lady for 30 minutes before ripping her pants off and molesting her for up to six minutes while at least 10 bystanders did nothing, Fox News reported.

The train made 27 stops in the time Ngoy assaulted the woman, and Upper Darby Police Superintendent Timothy Bernhardt said those who recorded the rape and didn’t interfere could face criminal charges.

An off-duty employee of The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) was the only person to phone 911.

After being arrested and charged for the sexual assault, police revealed Ngoy had been through “multiple arrests and two misdemeanor convictions, one for controlled substances and one for sexual abuse.”

The attacker is currently being held at the Delaware County Prison with bail set at $180,000, according to court records.

Ngoy came to the U.S. legally in 2012 on a student visa that expired in 2015 when he stopped going to school, Fox News reported.

In 2017, Ngoy was sentenced to 120 days in prison and nine months of probation after pleading guilty to misdemeanor sexual abuse.

In January of 2018, the sexual predator was put in immigration detention, but in March of 2019, an immigration judge issued a “withholding of removal” after ruling his misdemeanor sex offense was not a “serious crime” worth deportation.

After evading deportation, Ngoy was arrested twice more for disorderly conduct in 2020.

Records show Ngoy has been living at one of the city’s homeless shelters.
