Paedophile posed as single mum to incite parents to sexually abuse their children

A paedophile who posed as a single mum to incite parents to violently sexually abuse their own children has been jailed for five and a half years.

Samraj Kundi, 29, had just been released from a two-year prison sentence for distributing indecent images when he set up the ‘Open Minded Parents’ internet group.

The group, which has since closed down, saw Kundi posing as a woman who abused her own children and encouraged like-minded paedophiles to do the same, Bradford Crown Court heard.

Prosecutor Nick Adlington said an undercover police officer chatted to ‘Mistress Sarah’ on the site.

Kundi pretended to be a single mother from Liverpool who was ‘into action not fantasy’ who was going to ‘play with’ her two-year-old daughter that night.

In Skype chats, Kundi made filthy and disgusting suggestions to other people, urging the abuse of children as young as babies.

Kundi’s address in Baildon, was raided by the police on January 22, last year.

His phone web browser was set to ‘private’ in breach of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order made when he was jailed previously at Leeds Crown Court on April 21, 2015, for sending horrific images of child abuse to other paedophiles.

One photo showed a naked nine-year-old girl tied to a bench.

Mr Adlington said Kundi was freed from prison on April 20, 2016, and began committing new offences within three months.

He pleaded guilty to 12 charges of intentionally arranging or facilitating the commission of a child sexual offence and two counts of breach of the Sexual Harm Prevention Order.

Kundi, who sat in the dock with his hands on his knees staring at the floor, had stopped offending during 2017 but relapsed because of low mood and anxiety, according to Gerald Hendron.

He was from ‘a thoroughly reputable family who are devastated by his behaviour and have to carry the stigma,’ Mr Hendron said.

Judge David Hatton QC said: ‘This was a course of conduct involving various chats online in which you encouraged the commission of vile offences against children.’

Kundi was a dangerous offender, posing a high risk of causing serious harm to children in the future.

He will spend at least three years and eight months behind bars and may stay in jail for the whole of his term.

He will then be on an extended six-year licence period.

After the case, an NSPCC spokesperson said: ‘Kundi has shown no remorse for his depraved actions in which he orchestrated sickening abuse and he clearly represents a significant danger to children.

‘It is imperative that tough legislation is introduced to make the internet a safer place and sick-minded individuals like Kundi are not only brought to justice but their actions prevented in the first place.’
