A tattooed sex attacker who subjected a commuter to a sickening ordeal in a railway underpass has been locked up. 22-year-old Elias Kajue from Kilburn harassed his 23-year-old victim on the platform of Cricklewood station at 6am before dragging her into the subway, throwing her to the ground and sexually assaulting her. He pled guilty to sexual assault and false imprisonment at Southwark Crown Court on Friday. The incident was captured fully on CCTV, footage showed him lying on top of her and fiddling with his trousers - the station was unmanned. He was seen by two passengers who just got off a train and made off on his bicycle. Kajue was jailed indefinitely but will serve a minimum of three years before he is considered for release. Tattoos said "loyalty - family" The Sex beast Kajue adorned his body with tattoos saying ‘Loyalty’ and ‘Family’ on his arms. His victim remembered the distinct ‘scripted’ markings, the Police National Computer found a match and with help from the Met they tracked don Kajue - finding the same bike in his house. Detective Sergeant Mark Barton said: "Kajue brazenly targeted a young woman who was waiting alone for an early morning train. "Seemingly oblivious to the fact that his crime was being recorded on station CCTV, he subjected her to a violent and extremely frightening ordeal." DS Barton said the woman showed "great bravery" throughout the investigation
Said 'it wasn't me'
In interviews Kajue initially denied all knowledge of the attack and said that he had a bad memory of the date of the offence. He also claimed that the person pictured on CCTV was not him. His victim picked him out of a video ID parade. "All of the evidence...pointed to Kajue as being the person responsible for this assault, it gradually became clear to him that he had little option other than to plead guilty."
