Two brothers have been locked up for a total of 18 years after raping a woman following a Christmas event. The Met Police launched a specialist investigation that finally brought the pair to justice.

Justice After Initial Setback

The victim-survivor praised the Met officers for their dedication in cracking the case. The brothers’ convictions only came after police and prosecutors challenged an earlier court ruling that said there was no case to answer. Determined officers pushed the case through to the Court of Appeal, overturning that decision.

Sentencing Details

  • Marius Todoran, 40, from Brent, was sentenced to 8 years for rape at Kingston Crown Court.
  • Vasile Todoran, 43, his brother, got 10 years for rape, kidnapping, and kidnapping with intent to commit a sexual offence.

Both men have been added to the sex offenders register for life.

Met Police Work Pays Off

Detectives pieced together crucial evidence using CCTV footage, phone data, and witness statements. Their relentless work ensured these dangerous predators could no longer harm others.
