A criminal who threatened London escorts into handing over their takings and slashed a woman’s body has been sentenced to nine years and two months in jail – after the mobile he used was traced to his home.
He must serve a minimum of six years and four months’ in jail before he is eligible for parole.
The court heard on February 12 Abdul had used an escalating level of violence in his two attacks, the first after arranging to meet a sex worker at her address in the Isle of Dogs on April 17.
The second offence took place on 17 May at a hotel in Farnborough after Abdul had arranged to meet an escort.
