Repeat offender accused of kidnapping, rape after online pickup months after avoiding prison time

A Minnesota man with a history of sex crime convictions is facing new allegations of kidnapping and raping a woman at a hotel while he was on probation.

Abdimahat Bille Mohamed, age 28, is accused of using Snapchat to arrange a meeting with a woman at her residence in Mankato in September. He then allegedly transported her to a hotel in Bloomington, as reported by FOX 9.

The victim stated to investigators that upon entering Mohamed’s car, he ominously informed her, “You’re not going home.” When she attempted to flee, Mohamed purportedly confiscated her phone, asserting, “You’re not leaving.”

Prosecutors allege that Mohamed detained the woman for several days, during which time he repeatedly sexually assaulted her.

On September 21, nearly a week after the ordeal began, the victim managed to escape by leaping from Mohamed’s vehicle on Aldrich Avenue South. A concerned resident encountered the “very distraught and shaken up” woman and promptly contacted the authorities.

The incident occurred less than four months after Mohamed was sentenced in two unrelated sexual assault cases, including one involving a 15-year-old girl, FOX 9 reported. 

In May 2024, Mohamed was reportedly arrested after he lured a woman to his Minneapolis apartment using Snapchat and raped her, according to prosecutors.

Prosecutors added Mohamed threatened to shoot the victim, who told a paramedic that she had been strangled and raped, if she refused to have sex with him. 

Court records also indicated that during the incident, a witness heard arguing and entered the bedroom to find Mohamed on top of the victim. Mohamed then allegedly threatened to kill the witness. 

Less than a year earlier, in October 2024, Mohamed was slapped with charges from yet another rape, according to FOX 9.

Authorities reportedly revealed that in December 2017, Mohamed met a 15-year-old girl on Snapchat and picked her up in St. Paul, before driving her to Minneapolis. When the pair arrived, two men reportedly entered the vehicle and held the victim at gunpoint while forcing her to perform oral sex on one individual. Mohamed then got into the back seat of the car and proceeded to rape the underage victim, according to court documents. 

In May, Mohamed received sentences for both rape cases, but served no prison time due to the terms of a plea agreement, FOX 9 reported. 

He reportedly received a sentence of three years in prison for the 2017 sexual assault case involving a minor, but the sentence was stayed for five years and he did not serve any time in prison. 

Additionally, he was sentenced to 364 days in the Hennepin County workhouse, but ultimately received credit for time served. He was also sentenced to five years of probation.

In the 2024 sexual assault case, a Hennepin County judge sentenced Mohamed to 14 months in prison, which was also stayed. He was also sentenced to a day of probation and another 364 days in the local workhouse, for which he received credit for time served. 

Mohamed is charged with felony third degree criminal sexual conduct, kidnapping and criminal sexual conduct, according to jail records obtained by Fox News Digital. He is being held in the Hennepin County Public Safety Facility on $300,000 bond. 

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
