JACKY JHAJ FROM FELTHAM CAUGHT LURKING NEAR WEST LONDON SCHOOL TO PREY ON GIRLS

In December 2016, a disturbing case emerged involving Jacky Jhaj, a man from Feltham, who engaged in predatory behavior targeting young girls outside a school in west London. Jhaj, who was 29 at the time, was seen driving around the Hounslow area in his silver Range Rover, specifically targeting schoolchildren in a calculated effort to exploit them.

He would pick up these young girls, often under the guise of friendliness, and then proceed to ply them with alcohol, further manipulating and grooming them for his own sinister purposes. His actions included offering lifts to parties that were hosted by other pupils, creating an environment where the victims felt increasingly vulnerable and coerced.

Jhaj’s deception extended beyond mere predatory behavior; he falsely claimed to be a Hollywood film producer, asserting that he was conducting covert research for a screenplay he was writing. This fabricated identity was used to gain the trust of the children and to justify his presence and actions around the school premises.

One of his most serious offenses involved grooming a 15-year-old girl for sexual activity, which he pursued despite her young age. Additionally, he engaged in sexual activity with another girl, further highlighting the dangerous nature of his conduct.

Following a two-week trial at Isleworth Crown Court, Jhaj was found guilty of four counts of sexual activity. The court’s verdict led to his sentencing, and on a Tuesday, he was sentenced to four years in prison. The court’s decision underscores the severity of his crimes and the threat he posed to the community, especially to vulnerable young girls in the Feltham and wider west London area.

His actions, which took place in July of the previous year, were carried out while he was driving his silver Range Rover, and his presence near the school was a source of concern for parents, teachers, and local residents alike. The case serves as a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance and safeguarding measures to protect children from predators operating under false pretenses.
