Meet The Honeytrap Murder killers Surpreet Dhillon and Temidayo Awe

Publish date: 2024-02-11

The recent case of Surpreet Dhillon, a ‘honeytrap’ killer charged with murder, has shocked many. Dhillon was caught on camera lying to her young son about why she couldn’t come home, and this footage was shown on the popular TV show 24 Hours in Police Custody. Dhillon had seduced and drugged Saul Murray with an accomplice before calling two men who stabbed him to death in his own home in Luton, Bedfordshire, in February 2022.

Dhillon’s callous behaviour is highlighted by the footage in which she is seen crying after being charged with murder before speaking to her son over the phone. She lied to her son about why she couldn’t come home, and when he asked if she was suspected of murder, she told him that it was not true and that she was only helping the police. However, Dhillon was found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to ten years in prison.

She was involved with three other people in the plot to drug and rob Mr Murray after seeing images of his Rolex watches on social media. Murray was found naked in a pool of blood in the communal entrance to his flat in New Town Street, Luton after Dhillon called two accomplices Ikram Affia and Cleo Brown when GHB had not knocked him out. A post-mortem found that Murray died from a deep wound to his thigh, which penetrated his femoral artery, and he bled out from the injury.

The prosecutor said Dhillon and accomplice Temidayo Awe had shared brandy with Murray and ‘gave him GHB to knock him out’. The drug is class B illegal and has been associated with ‘date rape’ or ‘chemsex’ where GHB is used to enhance libido. Experts warn that even a tiny amount of the drug poses a risk of accidental overdose.

Accomplices Brown and Awe were also convicted of manslaughter and given 11 and seven years in prison respectively, while Affia was found guilty of murder and convicted for life with a minimum term of 25 years. The four defendants had travelled to Luton from London late on Saturday, February 26, in a Mercedes A-class car that Brown had hired.

The police linked Dhillon to the crime through Instagram contact with Murray. Awe was picked up through her social media contact with Dhillon, and the police were later able to identify Affia by a distinctive and rare designer Moncler coat he was wearing. It matched the one worn in the CCTV on the night of the offence.

The case of Surpreet Dhillon and her accomplices is a stark reminder of the dangers of using social media and online platforms for malicious purposes. It also highlights the importance of being aware of the risks of drugs like GHB and the consequences of taking them. Murray’s tragic death is a reminder that we must be vigilant about who we trust and who we allow into our lives.
