Conviction Details from Chester Crown Court
Chester Crown Court found Asad Hussain, 36, of Hankinson Avenue in Heald Green, Cheadle, guilty on May 1, 2026, following a nine-day trial. The jury convicted him of stalking involving serious alarm or distress, assault by beating, and failing to comply with a Section 49 RIPA notice.[1][2][3] Prosecutors presented digital evidence linking Hussain to the crimes. He faces sentencing in June. This case underscores how ex-partners exploit dating apps to inflict real-world harm on victims.[2]
Hussain’s relationship with the victim began in April 2024 under the alias “Mick Renney.” It turned controlling quickly. He rang her doorbell for nearly two hours upon seeing a male friend visit. The relationship ended May 6, 2024, after he forced entry into her bathroom and seized her phone, pushing her to the floor.[1][2] These actions formed the basis of the assault charge.[2]
Fake Profiles and Lured Intruders
Post-breakup in July 2024, Hussain created multiple fake Tinder profiles impersonating his ex-girlfriend. He used her photographs, phone number, email address, and home address. Messages claimed she desired a “rape fantasy” and wanted to be “roughed up.”[1][2][3][4] He instructed men to ignore resistance, saying “no” meant she “wanted it more.”[1][2] Police confirmed she neither created the profiles nor consented.[1][2]
At least 18 men showed up at her address. On one night, four arrived with nearly identical messages. One forced part of the door after instructions to “shove” it. Another entered while she was out, unaware her teenage daughter was upstairs alone.[3][4] No physical harm occurred, but the intrusions endangered her and her child.[2][3]
The BBC report is accurate. Asad Hussain, 36, from Greater Manchester, was convicted of stalking after creating fake Tinder profiles using his ex's details. He lured at least 18 men to her home with "rape fantasy" messages (claiming "no" meant "yes more").

Police Investigation and Evasion Tactics
Cheshire Police arrested Hussain on October 6, 2024. He denied being “Mick Renney” and knowing the victim.[2][3] Investigators linked him via vehicle registration tied to his business, despite alterations. CCTV footage, automatic number plate recognition data, and telecommunications records showed him driving near her home when profiles were active.[3][4] He used separate mobile phones for the accounts and discarded devices after learning of the probe.[1][2]
Hussain factory-reset personal phones to erase evidence.[1][2] This pattern indicates consciousness of guilt. The conviction relied on this robust digital trail, unrefuted in court.[1][3][4] Traditional family values demand protecting women and children from such predatory digital schemes.[2]
