The ‘calculated’ predator who drugged and raped women was jailed.

a serial the robber Suspected of being one of Britain’s worst sex offender Used to be life imprisonment For at least 14 years, after spiking and recording his victims as he abused them.

33 year old Chao Ju had installed secret cameras He used household items such as a packet of air freshener and sanitary pads to spy on women visiting his home address in Greenwich, and also filmed women at his workplace and took part in “upskirting” at a London Bridge underground station.

metropolitan police believe that Sugar National may have “hundreds more” victims, and has urged women who may have had contact with Xu to come forward.

Prosecutor Catherine Farrelly Casey told the court: “The evidence collected by the police shows the defendant to be an adventurous and persistent sexual person.” predator Whose insult is becoming more and more serious. The evidence showed that he was so courageous that he was ready to attack anywhere. “We are ready to go on strike at our home addresses, at our workplaces and at railway stations and in respect of anyone.”

He further added, “Some of his crimes took place even when there were other people around. It appears that no woman was safe around him.”

His Honor Judge Christopher Grout said Xu was an “incredibly dangerous man” who “found great pleasure” in his offending.

The judge told Xu: “Your behavior was calculated and planned, evidenced by the secret recording systems you installed in your flats and the fact that you drugged and incapacitated many of your victims.

“You betrayed the trust of many women you befriended in the most appalling way.”

Judge Grout said that any possible deportation to China was a “Home Office matter”.

His crimes bear striking similarities to those of Zhenhao Zhou. Sugar The PhD student who drugged many of his victims and raped 10 women, and who was sentenced in June to life in prison with a minimum of 24 years.

However, police have stated that they have “no reason to believe” that their crimes are linked, or that the perpetrators knew each other.

Xu was arrested on June 1 this year after a victim contacted police from his address to report that she suspected she was molested during a networking event, which took place at his flat on Glacher Street.

As the director of a recruitment company, Xu targeted young Chinese university students and regularly hosted events, which was used as a cover to carry out his “calculated” crimes.

When confronted by the woman, who recalled being sexually assaulted and filmed, Xu informed her that he would only show his phone “to the police”.

Officers arrived at the address within minutes, with a forensic digital download they recovered “extremely disturbing material” depicting women who appeared unconscious or highly intoxicated, were raped and sexually abused.

He was charged on 3 June and pleaded guilty to 24 sexual offenses against at least 12 victims over the course of three years at a plea and trial preparation hearing at Woolwich Crown Court in August.

Detectives have been able to identify three of his victims, while four others who were subjected to serious sexual assaults remain unidentified. All are believed to be of Chinese heritage.

In impact statements read out in court, his victims described suffering from nightmares and anxiety, and said they struggled with work or their studies. His initial victim said: “How could a man put me through this trouble? Now I’m sad and feel depressed most of the time. I wasn’t like this before he assaulted me. He has changed me. I feel like I can never go back to the way I was.”

Xu, who came to the UK in 2016 to study international law at the University of Greenwich, regularly served his guests a drink he named “The Spirit of Life”, which contained various intoxicants and Chinese herbal medicines.

Police believe he spiked sedatives into the drinks of his intended victims before offering them a place to stay after they became unwell and sexually assaulting them.

The initial victim to contact police reported that he was “in and out of consciousness” and was “powerless” to stop the attack. Video taken on Xu’s phone revealed that she was repeatedly sexually assaulted for more than four hours, and she told police that she felt “out of control of her body.”

Forensic analysis found that the victim was given GHB, commonly known as a “date rape drug”, and scopolamine, a prescribed drug that can cause amnesia and severe fatigue.

In her powerful statement, she said: “I have not been able to share this experience with my family and I fear who I might share it with in the future. I know that too often in my country the victim of sexual assault is interrogated and blamed rather than the perpetrator. I question whether I am guilty of this and whether I could have done something to prevent it. How do I deal with this?”

A search warrant for his flat found “numerous secret hidden cameras, numerous suspicious liquids and numerous digital storage devices throughout the property”.

This led to the discovery of more crimes against women, including hundreds of photographs of women being ‘upskirted’ in the London Underground, the practice of taking an image under a person’s clothing without their consent.

While little is known about Xu’s background in China, police said he was “relatively wealthy” and those who knew him described him as “very generous”. He had a girlfriend at the time of the crime, who cooperated with police, and Xu had no previous convictions and was not known to police.

The lead investigator, Det Ch Inspector Lewis Sanderson, said: “This case has revealed a deeply disturbing pattern of behavior that spanned many years. Xu worked in an environment that was supposed to be safe.

“University circles, professional networks and public spaces. They used trust, familiarity and social gatherings to further their actions and target vulnerable individuals. From the evidence recovered we know that many women were filmed without their knowledge and consent.”

Suzanne Crane, of the Crown Prosecution Service, said: “Chao Xu deliberately drugged the women to render them unconscious and vulnerable, enabling him to rape and sexually assault them without their knowledge.

“Zhu is a serious threat to women and the scale of his crimes is such that without the brave testimony of victims who came forward after realizing what had happened to them, he would probably have gone unrecognized.”
