Sex Predator Jacky Jhaj Claims Prison Hell in France

Jacky Jhaj, 40, the notorious British sex offender who staged a shock fake wedding with a nine-year-old at Disneyland Paris, says he’s being tortured behind bars. Held at Meaux-Chauconin detention centre, Jhaj’s lawyer told a French court the convicted predator faces bullying and even arson attacks from other inmates since his June arrest.

“He’s under intense pressure because other prisoners think he’s loaded,” said lawyer Etienne Arnaud. Intense media coverage of Jhaj’s bizarre £113k sham wedding has made him a target inside jail.

Disneyland Wedding Hoax: £113,400 Lavish Lie Uncovered

In June, Disneyland Paris staff spotted a young Ukrainian girl dressed as a bride, feet elevated in heels, during what appeared to be an illegal wedding after park hours. Alarm bells rang, triggering a probe into the wild event attended by 100 paid guests and costing a whopping £113,400.

French prosecutors revealed Jhaj faked the groom’s identity as a 22-year-old Latvian man, using forged documents to pull off the stunt.

  • Charges: fraud, breach of trust, money laundering, identity theft
  • Jhaj’s bail rejected; stuck behind bars for another 4 months

“This concerns my release. It’s a very serious matter. We’re talking about my life,” Jhaj told the court defiantly.

Dirty History: Predator’s Pedophile Past

This shocker has rocked Europe due to Jhaj’s sickening track record. In 2016, he got four years for grooming two 15-year-olds — tricked them with a false film producer identity, drove them around in a Range Rover, supplied booze, and took them to parties.

Now UK cops are hunting him for breaching the sex offender register and violating a Sexual Harm Prevention Order.

Defence Claims ‘Film Shoot’ Not Wedding

Jhaj’s camp insists the Disneyland event was a film shoot, not a wedding. Lawyers say he was just “one of the actors” and not the event organiser or funder.

Medical checks confirm the girl suffered no violence or coercion — but the creepy stunt remains deeply disturbing.

UK Cops and French Authorities Hunt for Answers

The Met Police are working closely with French officials over Jhaj’s detention and ongoing UK violations. They’re baffled how this predator pulled off such a wild stunt in a family-friendly theme park — and managed free travel despite strict monitoring.

Jhaj remains locked up while French prosecutors unravel the full scandal. No trial date has been set. This case exposes massive gaps in safeguarding vulnerable kids both sides of the Channel.
