Ugandan Migrant Receives Life Sentence for Brutal Attack on Pensioner in London

Ramazan Mukalazi, a migrant from Uganda, has been handed a life sentence for brutally beating and attempting to rape a 66-year-old woman in Hounslow, London. The attack occurred on November 2nd, 2022, when Mukalazi was seen dragging the woman into the bushes. The victim suffered severe head wounds during the assault.

Mukalazi, who had previously lost his right to remain in the country after a 2008 rape conviction, was released on license in September 2018 after serving ten years in prison. However, he was later recalled to prison in 2019 for demonstrating “risky behavior” towards women at a nightclub. Despite a judge recommending his deportation, Mukalazi was transferred to an immigration detention center and released on immigration bail in 2021.

During the trial at the Old Bailey, Mukalazi initially denied attacking the woman but ultimately pled guilty to attempted rape and causing grievous bodily harm with intent. His defense lawyer, Felicia Davy, argued that he was in a “state of desperation” during the attack. However, Judge Paul Dugdale sentenced Mukalazi to a life sentence, with a minimum term of 11 years in prison, stating that he posed an ongoing risk of committing violent sexual offenses.
