Man jailed for stalking and voyeurism acts against woman in her twenties

A man has been jailed for more than two years following 'horrendous' acts of stalking and voyeurism against a woman in her twenties in Slough.

Between December 2023 and February 2024, Graham Lees, aged 46, of no fixed address, befriended a woman in her twenties and repeatedly called her from an unknown number after she rejected his sexual advances.

Lees also took her personal items and put a mobile phone in her bedroom to film her without her knowledge.

He was arrested on February 18 2024.

Lees was then re-arrested and charged on July 12 this year.

He was sentenced to two years and two months in prison at Reading Crown Court on Tuesday, December 2.

The judge also made Lees subject to a 10-year sexual harm prevention order and an indefinite restraining order.

During the same hearing, he pleaded guilty to one count each of stalking and voyeurism – recording a private act.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Laura Bevan said: “The victim has shown remarkable bravery in coming forward and enduring the lengthy investigation.

“The crimes committed by the defendant, stalking and voyeurism, were horrendous, causing significant distress and fear.

“Thanks to the victim’s courage, we were able to bring the offender to justice and ensure that others are protected from similar harm.”
