A woman has told how she was attacked by two defendants Imaan Coley and Mohammed Khan at her home where she was brutally beaten and humiliated, a court heard
A woman tortured and made to drink urine by a cruel couple branded them ‘monsters’ who ‘destroyed my life overnight’.
The victim’s flat in Sparkbrook, Birmingham, was stormed by Imaan Coley and her toyboy drug dealer boyfriend Mohammed Khan on August 12, 2023 because Coley had taken a dislike to her. Over the course of the next four hours or so she was badly beaten, had her nose broken, was made to strip and shower, had cat food smeared over her face and was made to drink Flash floor cleaner.
Then, in a truly sickening act, another vulnerable woman who had been held captive by Coley was instructed to squat over her face and urinate in her mouth, a court heard.
As a final insult Coley and Khan stole her belongings, including her clothes and three cats, one of which has not been returned since. The woman, who we have chosen to keep anonymous, was present at Birmingham Crown Court on Monday, March 17 to see her two tormenters jailed for a total of 25 years.

In a harrowing statement read to the court, she said: “I haven’t had an easy life but this is the worst thing I have ever gone through. Part of me died on August 12, 2023. I will never be the same person I was.”
She admitted it was a ‘struggle to stay alive’ most days because living with the memory of what happened was a constant battle. The woman said she was once the person friends turned to with their problems but now she no longer felt empathetic and did not have the energy to help, reported BirminghamLive.
“I can’t help compare their issues to my own and I think to myself that they don’t know know what real problems are,” she said, adding: “I really dislike this about myself. I have become this person through no choice of my own. This new person has been created by the direct actions of these monsters who destroyed my life overnight.”
She said Coley and Khan wrongly portrayed her as a prostitute who owed them money and spread lies about her on social media. In reality she was ‘completely innocent’ and attending college to try to better herself.
She continued: “I was in my home, washing my clothes, going about my everyday life. Even after this torture they tried to trash my reputation like I deserved it and had it coming to me. I didn’t deserve any of this.”
As for the long-lasting impact, the victim spoke of becoming angry at little things, crying herself to sleep, feeling constantly on edge and unsafe as well as relying on medication which she had previously worked hard to get herself off.
She now has to wear glasses due to her eyes deteriorating from having floor cleaner poured on her face. Her nose was broken, which was celebrated by Coley, leaving her insecure about the way it looks now.
She described her cats as ‘like her children’ and said the thought of the cat that never returned home ‘hurts me every single day’. Finally, the woman said while her torture may have only been one night of fun for Coley and Khan, it ‘took everything’ from her, including her ‘hopes, aspirations and dignity’.
“I know I will never be the same,” she added. She was one of three victims subjected to brutal attacks by either Coley or Khan, both from Sparkbrook. Coley cuckooed another woman’s house and held her captive for more than two months, during which she inflicted appalling abuse to her.
Khan carried out a vicious hammer attack on a man who he accused of trying to steal his friend’s car. Following a trial Coley was convicted of false imprisonment, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent, three counts of administering a noxious substance and burglary. She was jailed to 14 years.
Khan admitted two counts of inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent, two counts of administering a noxious substance and one of burglary. He was jailed for 11 years. Both were declared ‘dangerous’ and were handed extended four-year licence periods.
