A Thames Valley Police probe has landed Graham Lees behind bars for stalking and voyeurism in Slough.

Two Years Inside and Tough Orders

Lees, 46, with no fixed address, was locked up for two years and two months at Reading Crown Court on Tuesday, 2 December. The judge slapped him with a 10-year sexual harm prevention order and an indefinite restraining order.

At the hearing, Lees pleaded guilty to stalking and secretly filming a private act.

How He Stalked His Victim

Between December 2023 and February 2024, Lees targeted a woman in her twenties. After she rejected his advances, he bombarded her with calls from unknown numbers. He even stole her personal items and planted a phone in her bedroom to secretly record her.

Police Praise Victim’s Bravery

Lees was first arrested on 18 February 2024 and re-arrested on 12 July. Detective Constable Laura Bevan said:

“The victim has shown remarkable bravery in coming forward and enduring the lengthy investigation. The crimes committed by the defendant, stalking and voyeurism, were horrendous, causing significant distress and fear. Thanks to the victim’s courage, we were able to bring the offender to justice and ensure that others are protected from similar harm.”
