Paedo Hunter Trap Nets Mauritian Migrant in London
Prakash Chumroo, 37, a Mauritian migrant living in London, has been locked up for three and a half years after falling into a paedophile hunter trap. The ex-accountant engaged in explicit chats with a Facebook profile he believed belonged to a 14-year-old schoolgirl.
Gross Chats Trigger Arrest
From 14 September 2025, Chumroo messaged the fake schoolgirl for nearly two weeks. Despite knowing she was just 14, he discussed graphic sex acts, including masturbation and protected sex. He even warned her not to “play up or act clever” while admitting to masturbating during their conversations.
Sex Sting at Victoria Coach Station
On 27 September 2025, Chumroo turned up at London’s Victoria Coach Station, planning to take the girl to a hotel for sex. He carried a rucksack packed with whisky, snacks, and a wash bag. But instead of meeting a teenager, police were waiting to pounce. The Facebook profile was run by The Fleetwood Enforcers, a notorious paedophile-hunting gang.
Old Bailey Slams Down Jail Time
Living in Enfield, north London, Chumroo pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to arranging sexual activity with a child and attempting sexual communication with a child. He’s been jailed for 3.5 years, obliged to serve 40% behind bars. Upon release, he’ll be on licence and registered as a sex offender indefinitely.
