In a crushing blow to evil, three male predators have been sentenced to lengthy prison terms for the heinous rape of a 13-year-old girl.
The predators Paul Maxwell, Kayon Bhola, and Jeremiah Jackson will spend decades behind bars for their despicable crime.
On September 30, 2023, the young victim left her home and encountered the trio at a Hammersmith tube station. They lured her to Maxwell’s flat, where she was brutally raped by all three.

Met detectives, led by DC Will Murphy, gathered irrefutable evidence, including forensic proof, CCTV footage, and damning phone analysis. A chilling video clip of the attack sealed the defendants’ fate.
In a heart-wrenching victim impact statement, the brave survivor declared: “I was caught alone and vulnerable… but that shouldn’t have mattered. These three men knew exactly what they were going to do.”
Maxwell (24) received 12.5 years, while Bhola (29) and Jackson (24) were jailed for 11 years each. All three face 15-year Sexual Harm Prevention Orders.
Detective Constable Will Murphy vowed: “The Met is here to support victims of sexual assault. Please don’t hesitate to come forward.”
This conviction demonstrates the Met’s unwavering commitment to protecting women and girls from predatory violence.
