A HARROW pensioner has been found guilty of turning a Tanzanian woman into a slave in the first modern day case of its kind.

Saeeda Khan, 68, of Whitmore Road, made Mwanahanisi Mruke sleep on a thin mattress in the cold of her kitchen, at times getting by on just two slices of bread, and summoned her by ringing a bell.

Mrs Khan stopped her leaving the house, listened in on phone calls to relatives and even prevented the 47-year-old returning home to see her parents in their dying days or attending their funerals.

More to follow.
