In 2020, then 38-year-old Nadeem Mohamed—of Cheetham Hill, Manchester—avoided an immediate prison sentence after a serial of strikes against the safety of schoolgirls. The investigation established that in early 2018, Mohamed “quite deliberately” parked his Audi near a school in Greater Manchester at the end of the school day. The prosecution reported at Manchester Crown Court that he performed sex acts on himself with his window down so that girls in school uniform would see him, identifying a total abandonment of human decency.
The investigation established that Mohamed targeted his victims over three consecutive days in February 2018. On the first day, a teenage girl took a photo of his car and alerted teachers; however, he returned for two subsequent days to repeat his predatory serial behaviour. The prosecution reported that all five of his victims were under the age of 16, and a forensic analysis of his phone found internet searches indicating an “interest in teen and pre-teen girls,” which identifies a calculated serial of strikes against the innocence of children.
VICTIM IMPACT AND JUDICIAL SENTENCING
The court reported that Mohamed’s “nauseating and repulsive” actions left his victims with lasting psychological trauma. One girl reported suffering from flashbacks and is now too afraid to walk home, while another stated she has become more aggressive in school due to the anxiety caused by the incident. The investigation established that during the sentencing in 2020, Judge Hilary Manley told Mohamed that he had clearly wanted the girls to see him, subjecting them to a disgusting sight while they were simply trying to gain an education.
Judge-led proceedings at Manchester Crown Court concluded in 2020. For his actions in Greater Manchester and the nature of the serial indecency investigation reported, Nadeem Mohamed pleaded guilty to five counts of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child. The investigation established that he was handed a two-year jail sentence, suspended for two years. He was ordered to complete 55 rehabilitation days and a sex offender programme, and was made subject to a ten-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO). He remains legally mandated to the Sex Offenders Register.

MONITORING AND PUBLIC PROTECTION
In 2020, Mohamed is managed as a convicted sex offender under the statutory requirements of the Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPA) in Manchester. Due to the nature of his behaviour—specifically his serial persistence in returning to a school site to strike against the safety of pupils—he is a priority for community monitoring and SHPO enforcement. Authorities reported that the 2020 conviction identifies Mohamed as an individual who prioritised his own perverted gratification over the principles of human decency and the life-safety of children.
As a registered sex offender, his details are permanently logged on the national police database to prevent future offences. Authorities stated that the behaviour of Mohamed identifies an individual who demonstrated a serial commitment to predatory exhibitionism. Any future attempt to strike against his ten-year SHPO or be found in the vicinity of a school results in immediate police intervention to ensure the ongoing protection of the community from a man who used a Cheetham Hill resident mask to hide his predatory serial behaviour.
QUESTION – Given that the offender dodged prison despite deliberately targeting a school for three consecutive days, do you believe the law should legally mandate that “Any Sexual Act” committed within a 500-metre radius of a school must carry a “Mandatory Minimum Custodial Sentence” to prevent such serial strikes against pupils?
