Sexual predator Jordan McSweeney recalled to prison days before murdering aspiring lawyer Zara Aleena as she walked home alone
He hadn’t been picked up by officers when he spent the night hunting for a woman to attack and chanced upon Zara on a residential street in Ilford, just 10 minutes away from her home.
The defendant had dragged Ms Aleena into a driveway in Cranbrook Road, Ilford, east London, where he subjected her to a ferocious assault. A post-mortem examination found she had suffered multiple serious injuries and died of severe head and neck wounds.Video footage from the area showed McSweeney appearing to target other women before he followed Ms Aleena.
At a previous hearing, the court was told McSweeney was a prolific offender and had been released from prison on licence on June 17 - just days before the murder. Speaking outside of the Central Criminal Court, DCI Dave Whellams, the investigating officer, said: "She was attacked while walking alone on a residential street. She had every right to be there. She had every right to be safe."My thoughts are with her family and friends and I cannot imagine the pain they have experienced in the last 5-6 months. It was clear she was truly loved by all those who knew her.
