Mohammed Fethaullah, 64, has died while serving time at HMP High Down. The convicted murderer and rapist passed away on May 13 last year.
Life Sentence for Gruesome Stepmother Murder
Fethaullah was locked up for life back in 2002 after orchestrating the chilling kidnap and murder of his stepmother, Yasmin Akhtar. The victim was caught in the fallout of a messy divorce between Fethaullah’s father and Akhtar.
Yasmin was abducted from her Redhill home, taken to a shop on Old Kent Road, then strangled with black tape. Her body was wrapped in carpet and burned in Larkhall Park, Clapham.
Rape Victim Comes Forward Years Later
In a horrifying twist, a woman came forward in 2017 reporting that Fethaullah had raped her in 1999 when she was just 14 years old. At the time, the victim worked in a Brixton grocer’s shop managed by Fethaullah.
