The British paedophile charged in connection with organising a “mock wedding” to a child in Disneyland Paris is Jacky Jhaj, who was found guilty of sexual activity with two 15-year-olds in 2016, the BBC understands.

Jhaj, 39, has been charged in connection with organising the fake ceremony on Saturday, in which a nine-year-old Ukrainian girl was due to feature as his bride.

He was arrested when police were called on Saturday morning by an actor who said he had been hired by Jhaj to play the father of the bride.

The BBC has previously investigated how Jhaj was able to hire hundreds of children to act as his fawning fans at a fake film premiere in London’s Leicester Square in 2023.

    scum like this are what keep me from entirely opposing capital punishment

    although, that term is a misnomer: punishment is a tool whose purpose is to teach and reinforce behavioral changes.

    This sack of shit will never learn anything. Erasing him would not be for his sake, but for the world’s.

      My feeling is that sex offenders should get life, and a relatively comfortable prison life, in exchange for no possibility of parole.

      If you know what you are and choose to act on it, no second chances.

      Fairly sure that death is the ultimate reform that 100% guarantees criminals won’t be committing any crime ever again.
