The court heard how the victim – a 24-year-old woman – became suspicious when she was asked to deliver the suitcase from Thailand back to the UK in June 2024. She refused, and when she arrived at Birmingham Airport she was put into a car and driven to London by masked men. She was taken to a house in Hanwell, west London, where she was subjected to prolonged torture, including by Singh, who also raped her on two occasions, the court was told.
