Zhenhao Zou, a 28-year-old Chinese engineering student, has been sentenced to life with a minimum term of 24 years in the UK for drugging and raping 10 women across London and China, with fears that he may have assaulted dozens more. Following a harrowing trial, Zou was found guilty of 11 counts of rape, along with multiple charges including voyeurism, false imprisonment, and possession of drugs and extreme pornography. Only two victims have been identified, while the remaining eight are yet to come forward. Police discovered hundreds of hours of filmed assaults, suggesting over 50 more potential victims. Zou used WeChat and dating apps to lure fellow Chinese students to his flats, where he drugged and raped them, often filming the abuse. Officers believe Zou may be one of the UK’s worst sex offenders. The case has chilling similarities to past high-profile sex crimes, such as Reynhard Sinaga and Stephen Port. With support from Chinese authorities, UK police are now exploring ways to reach victims in China. Zou remains under investigation as more women come forward. See
