Elahi’s vile crimes

Elahi began his evil abuse in 2017, while living in his family home. 

His only legitimate income was from working at McDonald’s, while, unbeknownst to those who knew him, he secretly targeted women online. 

The criminal would operate on sugar daddy websites, where he would pose as a doctor or stockbroker. 

Targeting women that he knew were in debt, Elahi would ask for sexual images in exchange for money. 

He would then find out the addresses of the women’s families, using them to blackmail his victims into more graphic content. 

Elahi even began to tutor other online predators including Anthony Burns, who targeted 600 victims himself. 

Burns would later be jailed for 24 years. 

Elahi is finally caught

Elahi was eventually arrested, after US investigators asked UK police for help in catching an online predator. 

They were hoping that the criminal would be extradited to America to face justice. 

Elahi was found to have been abusing an underage girl in the US, admitting his crime while being questioned. 

When asked if he had committed any similar crimes, he openly said “hundreds”.

Police discovered that he was selling images and videos of his victims, generating up to £25,000 from selling the content to other online predators. 

He was also found to have 67,000 indecent pictures of children and had 2,000 victims across 30 countries.

Judge Sarah Buckingham described him as the “very worst type of predatory offender ever identified thus far”.


He admitted to 158 charges against 72 complainants and was jailed for 32 years. 

After the sentencing, Tony Cook of the National Crime Agency said: “Abdul Elahi is a depraved sadist who got sexual gratification through power and control over his victims, whom he often goaded to the point of wanting to kill themselves.

“He has wrecked lives and families.”

Revenge Porn Helpline worker Sophie Mortimer added: “We hope that every person affected by this feels some small sense of closure today, we know that their priority is the removal of this content.”

Hunting the predators

Elahi’s crimes and his arrest will be explored in Channel 5’s series Prime Suspect: Hunting the Predators.

The episode will feature exclusive interviews with the people who helped put the predator behind bars.

Viewers can catch the episode when it airs on March 12, 2025, at 10pm.
