LONDON: A British court on Friday jailed a Sudanese asylum seeker for 29 years for murdering a woman who worked at the hotel where he had been housed.
Deng Chol Majek is believed to have entered the UK by small boat less than three months before attacking Rhiannon Whyte, 27, at a railway station in Walsall, central England, on October 20 2024, stabbing her 23 times.
He is said to have tracked Whyte, a mother-of-one, to the station at 11:00 pm after she finished a shift at the hotel where he had been living, before inflicting 19 wounds to her head with a screwdriver, including a fatal brain injury.
