  "textContent": "\n\n\nAn Indian man who raped a woman after luring her to a hotel may have targeted 100 more victims.\n\nGurwinder Singh, 37, preyed on women, inviting them to a hotel in London with the promise of work.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nHe made contact through WhatsApp and posed as a woman who could give the victim shifts as a care worker, so long as she provided her passport and national insurance number.\n\nSingh met his victim at a station and presented himself as a fellow care worker helping her on shift, telling her she would be taking care of a sportsman with serious injuries at the hotel.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nUpon arrival at the hotel, he said he was the \"sportsman\" and undressed, telling her to give him a massage.\n\nAfter the victim refused, he raped her and tried to threaten her into silence.\n\nPolice believe the scale of his crimes may be much wider.\n\nOfficers discovered Singh booked rooms at the same hotel on more than 100 occasions between December 2024 and August 2025.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nHe also had conversations on WhatsApp with many other women with the same claim he could help them find work.\n\nThe Met is hoping to speak to those who had contact with Singh, including women who he had targeted in the Indian community in the Southall and Hayes areas in west London.\n\nHe was found guilty of rape, attempted rape, assault by penetration, and one count of common assault.\n\nSouthwark Crown Court heard how Singh raped his victim on June 21 after violently assaulting her.\n\n### LATEST CRIME NEWS:\n\n\n\n\n  * Man, 60, charged after elderly woman's body found in freezer in seaside town\n  * Illegal migrants charged in US after breaking into home, torturing and sexually assaulting its owner\n  * Man jailed after telling mum and her children 'I want to rape a white girl' while exposing himself\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nShe then managed to run out of the hotel and was helped by two members of the public into a taxi.\n\nShe then received a call from Singh, warning her the attack had been filmed and would \"go viral\" if she reported it.\n\nDespite his threat, she reported the incident to the police the following day.\n\nSingh was arrested at the same hotel on August 11.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nDetective Constable Lydia Webb said: \"The victim in this case has shown incredible courage in coming forward and disclosing what happened to her - it is thanks to her bravery that Singh has been convicted and is unable to cause further harm.\n\n\"We believe that there may be other women who have been subject to Singh’s crimes and we want to provide reassurance that any reports will be fully investigated and dealt with sensitively and with compassion.\n\n\"We recognise that coming forward can be a daunting experience, but would encourage victim-survivors to speak with us so they can get the support and help they very much deserve.\n\n\"All victims of sexual assault are given anonymity for life.\"\n\nAnyone with information is encouraged to contact police on 101 with reference number 3916/16FEB26.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
