Serial rapist who drugged and filmed at least 10 women is jailed
- Zhenhao Zou, a 28-year-old PhD student, has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 24 years for drugging and raping 10 women in London and China.
- Zou filmed his attacks on unconscious victims and kept a 'trophy box' of their belongings; only two of the 10 identified victims have been traced.
- He was convicted of 11 counts of rape, three counts of voyeurism, and other related offences after a month-long trial.
- Zou, described as a 'sexual predator,' used WeChat and dating apps to befriend fellow students, inviting them to his flat where he would drug and assault them.
- Since his conviction, 24 women have contacted the Metropolitan Police, believing they may also have been victims of Zou.
