'UNDULY LENIENT'

Libby Squire killer Pawel Relowicz could have jail time INCREASED after raping and murdering student

LIBBY Squire's evil killer could have his jail sentence increased for being "unduly lenient".

Pawel Relowicz, 26, was last month caged for life with a minimum of 27 years after raping and murdering the 21-year-old student in Hull.

But his sentence could now be increased after his case was referred to the Attorney General.

A spokesman said: "We have received a request for the sentence of Pawel Relowicz to be considered under the Sentence scheme.

"The Law Officers have 28 days from sentencing to consider the case and make a decision."

During a trial earlier this year, jurors heard how Libby was "extremely vulnerable" when she was spotted by Relowicz, who was prowling the streets looking for a victim.

After forcing Libby in his car, the dad-of-two drove her to remote playing fields where he raped her before dumping her dead or dying in the river Hull.

She was discovered six weeks later on March 20, 2019, in the Humber estuary by a fishing boat - a gold necklace bearing the letter 'L' still hanging around her neck.

PEEPING TOM

Relowicz was a convicted pervert who was described as a "disgusting" Peeping Tom who "violated intimate moments" by his own lawyer.

The fiend previously pleaded guilty to nine sexually motivated offences including voyeurism, outraging public decency and burglary.

He had exposed himself to women and performed sex acts on himself in the street in the year leading up to Libby's death.

Relowicz also watched them through their windows as they changed or had sex and swiped underwear and sex toys from women's homes as "trophies".

His last offence occurred just days before Libby went missing in 2019.

Sickeningly, the married dad-of-two admitted he had a "fetish" and was looking for "easy sex" on the night Libby vanished.

Relowicz forced Libby's parents to listen to his callous web of lies during a lengthy trial - including claiming he had consensual sex with Libby.

But jurors saw through his deception and yesterday convicted him of rape and murder at Sheffield Crown Court after 27 hours and 55 minutes of deliberation.

It came just over two years after philosophy and religion student Libby vanished in Hull on February 1, 2019.

'I LONG TO DIE'

Libby's mum Lisa revealed her "torture" at her daughter's death and how she "silently screams in pain".

She told Sheffield Crown Court in a powerful victim impact statement: "There are no words that can explain the torture of living without my Libby. She was a sister, a grandaughter, niece and cousin.

“I have not only lost my daughter but the opportunity to be a grandmother to her children. In any times of trouble she wanted me, her mum. Knowing I was not there when she needed me will haunt me for the rest of my life.

“I now live in two worlds where I live as a mother, wife, friend and employee but there is also a world that will run parallel and is a dark and lonely world.

"In this world I long to die so I can be with my girl. I wake up with disappointment that I will live another day.

"This is a world where I silently scream in pain and pray that one day we will be reunited in a dream, a world where we constantly look for signs in every rainbow.

"A world I didn’t want to be in. Imagine wanting to live to be here with your children but one where you long to die so I can be with my child."

Lisa touchingly revealed how Libby would tell her she loved her "all the time" and revealed her pride at her "beautiful, caring and wonderful girl".
