24 Hours in Police Custody – Chilling moment honeytrap killer props door open and lets knifemen into victim’s flat

THIS is the chilling moment a honeytrap killer props open a door to allow a knifeman into their victim's flat.

Surpreet Dhillon used a broom from the hallway to allow accomplice Ikram Affia into the property, where Affia stabbed Saul Murray, 33, in the leg.

Saul was seduced and stripped by Dhillon, 36, and Temidayo Awe, 21, who sedated him with date-rape drug GHB (gamma-hydroxybutyrate) as part of a honeytrap scheme.

CCTV released on Channel 4's 24 Hours in Police Custody showed the trio entering his flat in Luton, .

After some time, Dhillon is seen exiting to open the door and hold it in place with the broom.

Shortly after, two men enter the building, with one, who was later found to be Affia, wielding a large knife.

Saul was found in a pool of blood in the communal entrance to the flat after the conspiracy to rob him took a tragic turn.

A post-mortem revealed that the dad-of-six bled to death due to a deep stab wound to the thigh which pierced his femoral artery.

The two women hatched a plot to drug him and steal his Rolex watches, but it took an ugly turn when Affia, 31, and Cleon Brown, 29, arrived.

The fact that the watches turned out to be fake only made the death more senseless.

According to police, Dhillon was suspected to have participated in similar incidents before, also involving GHB.

Saul and Dhillon met on  and the women travelled from London to Luton, along with their male accomplices late on February 26 2022.

They met Saul outside his flat while the two men drove to a drive-thru .

Dhillon admitted sharing brandy with Saul and giving him GHB, while swabs taken after the gang were arrested revealed that the trio engaged in  to some degree.

The women's DNA was found on the body, while Saul's blood was discovered in the car used to transport them to Luton.

Affia was identified from CCTV due to a distinctive, £1350 Moncler coat that he was wearing both at the scene of the crime and when he was spotted at a London KFC shortly before.

Detectives discovered that only 69 such coats had been sold in the UK.

Affia, was found guilting of murder at Luton Crown Court, while Dhillon, Awe and Brown were convicted of manslaughter.

The four defendants, all from London, were further convicted for conspiring to rob Saul, while Affia was guilty of possessing a knife.

Murderer Affia was handed a life sentence with a minimum term of 25 years, while Brown received 11 year behind bars, Dhillon was sentenced to 10 years and Awe for 7 years.

In a victim personal statement, Saul's father Colin said that he had watched his son die on CCTV.

He added: "It is the last thing I think about before going to sleep and first thing I think about when I wake up."

Judge Michael Simon said Saul's life was "brutally cut short" and that Dhillon lived a "predatory lifestyle" chasing "easy money".
