A woman who was subjected to a sustained and violent assault has seen her attacker convicted after being supported throughout the investigation by specially trained Met officers
Police Constable Andrew Fisher who led the investigation said: “This was a horrific incident which left the woman with significant stab injuries. From the outset we made sure the she was at the heart of our investigation; supporting her where we could and ensuring we could build the best case to get a conviction. I am glad that we’ve achieved this and a dangerous man is behind bars. Tackling violence against women and girls is a key priority for the Met and I hope convictions such as these, while highlighting the terrible violence some women suffer, demonstrate how determined we are as a police force to hold those responsible to account.”
