Violent rapist from Milton Keynes given life after relentless attacks on same woman
A man has been sentenced to life for violently assaulting and raping a woman.
Jamal Jeng, aged 28, of Medhurst, Milton Keynes, was convicted in October 2025 of rape, strangulation and assault in relation to a number of incidents which took place over several months while he lived in Bedford.
The court heard that Jeng attacked the victim on a number of occasions before raping her.
The case was investigated by detectives from Bedfordshire Police’s specialist Rape and Serious Sexual Offences (RASSO) team.
Jeng was sentenced at Luton Crown Court on Friday (January 9) to life but must serve a minimum of eight years before he will be considered for parole.
When sentencing him, the judge commented that there was no doubt that Jeng was on a campaign of escalating abuse and that his offending reflected his need for power and domination.
In a victim impact statement, the victim said: “I know my life will never be the same after what he did to me and how he made me feel. It has changed me beyond recognition. I will never go back to the person I was.
“This period of my life is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.”
Detective Constable Stefania Digirolamo, who investigated said: “This was a shocking series of attacks culminating in a brutal rape.
“I would like to commend the bravery of the victim in this case. Her evidence was vital in supporting the investigation which ultimately resulted in a significant jail sentence for this violent and abusive man.”
