Nightclub pair kidnapped women and one went for McDonald's after raping his victim

A twisted pair kidnapped women they targeted in a nightclub, with one of them then going to McDonald's after raping his victim.

Badr Alhadidi, 39, and Dhari Alshammari, 27, were both found guilty of kidnap while Alshammari was also found guilty of rape following a trial at Isleworth Crown Court.

Alhadidi and Alshammari approached two women in a nightclub in Vauxhall, South West London on July 16, 2022 at about 5.30am before abducting them later the same morning.

When they were confronted in a police interview with CCTV of the women hardly able to walk, being dragged on the pavement and forced into a property - they laughed and claimed the women were sober and consenting.

CCTV from inside the club showed Alshammari pouring vodka into some glasses while Alhadidi waited for the women outside the toilets.

At about 6am, all four were seen leaving the club.

The two women were incapacitated as Alhadidi and Alshammari forced the victim-survivors into a car, manhandling them and having to support them to stand.

They drove the women to an address in Kensington and further CCTV showed Alshammari dragging one of the women along the pavement.

Both were forced through a doorway where they collapsed.

Inside the property, Alshammari raped one of the women. After he went to a nearby McDonald’s to order food before returning to his home address.

Later that same morning, Alhadidi drove the women to a petrol station in another area of London and left them there.

On CCTV, they were seen falling over and into traffic still incapacitated on their walk home.

One of the women reported to the police they had been on a night out and couldn't remember parts of her evening. She said she remembered being pinned down in a car and sexually assaulted in a room.

Police then launched an investigation and arrested the two men two days later on July 18.

When they were shown CCTV footage in their police interviews they laughed and claimed the complainants were sober and consented.

Officers immediately began a full investigation which led them to identify and arrest the two men two days later on Monday, 18 July.

The men's movements were tracked on CCTV across London and further evidence was found on the suspects' phones.

Detective Constable Tony Larkin, who led the investigation, said: "Alhadidi and Alshammari are two predators who set out that night with only one sinister intention in mind.

"They had a clear plan of how they were going to target the victim-survivors and thought they could get away with it.

"They’ve shown no remorse and have no idea how much harm and distress they have caused. The CCTV footage reviewed as part of our investigation was harrowing and showed real violence and monstrous treatment of the victim-survivors.

“I would like to thank the victim-survivors for coming forward and reporting this to the police, they have been extremely brave. No matter when someone chooses to report a rape or sexual assault, detectives will always listen to and support you.”

The two men will be sentenced at Isleworth Crown Court on 26 May.
