Streatham Predator Jailed for 15 Years for Child Rape

A Streatham man has been jailed for 15 years after being convicted of repeatedly raping and sexually abusing a girl under the age of 13.

Kamran Khan, 44, of Streatham High Road in Lambeth, south London, was sentenced at Inner London Crown Court on Wednesday, 1 April.

He was found guilty on 15 January of ten sexual offences against the child.

The offences included rape of a girl under 13 and sexual assault of a child by touching.

Khan exploited connections with the girl’s family to gain time alone with her.

The abuse occurred in multiple locations, including the child’s home, her bedroom and a park bench.

He was arrested on 6 July 2025 following a report from a family member.

A family member had witnessed a concerning interaction between Khan and the girl.

Despite threats made by Khan that he would kill the child if she disclosed the abuse, she reported what had happened.

Metropolitan Police officers seized Khan’s mobile phone during his arrest.

The victim had disclosed being forced to watch videos on the device.

Analysis of the phone revealed pornographic material in the search history that supported the girl’s account.

Forensic samples taken from Khan and DNA from the victim also confirmed sexual contact.

Detective Constable Franky Green, from the Met’s Child Abuse Investigation Team, said the victim and her family had shown courage in coming forward.

He added that Khan had preyed on a defenceless child and used established connections as a smokescreen for his offending.

The Met’s Child Abuse Investigation Team works to provide a safe environment for victims and families throughout investigations.

In addition to the 15-year custodial sentence, Khan was placed on the sex offenders register.

He was also made subject to a restraining order and a Sexual Harm Prevention Order.

The case was investigated by the Metropolitan Police’s Child Abuse Investigation Team, which used phone analysis and forensic evidence to secure the convictions.

The force has increased its focus on tackling child sexual abuse through investment in digital forensics and monitoring tools.
