Asad Hussain, a 36-year-old man from the UK, was convicted at Chester Crown Court for stalking, assault, and failing to comply with a Section 49 Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) notice. Hussain created a fake Tinder profile using his ex-partner's photos and personal information, inviting multiple men to her home under false pretenses. The court revealed that at least 18 men arrived at her address in 2024, believing they had been invited after matching with her online. Some men reported that they had received disturbing messages suggesting a 'rape fantasy' scenario. The investigation, led by Cheshire Police, uncovered Hussain's attempts to conceal his identity through various means, including using different phones. He was arrested in October 2024 and denied involvement during questioning. The case has raised significant concerns about online safety and the potential for harassment, with the investigating officer describing Hussain as a deceitful individual intent on causing harm. Sentencing is expected later, following a nine-day trial.
