A Birmingham couple has been sentenced to a total of 25 years in prison for a series of brutal attacks. Imaan Coley, 37, and her boyfriend Mohammed Khan, 24, targeted multiple victims, including a woman whom they tortured. Coley and Khan stormed into their first victim's home, beat her, and forced her to strip. They also stole her belongings, including her three cats. The court heard many disturbing details about their actions, including making the victim drink bleach and taking away her food. Judge Peter Cooke described Coley's treatment of the victims as extremely cruel. She had previously kept another woman captive in her home for over two months. During this time, she mistreated her in various shocking ways. In a different attack, Khan used a hammer to beat a man. The victim sustained serious injuries, and Khan claimed he was defending himself from an attempted car theft. The judge called this act of violence "especially vicious." The couple was found guilty of several crimes, including wounding with intent and burglary. Coley received a 14-year sentence while Khan was sentenced to 11 years. Both were labeled as "dangerous" by the judge and received additional time on probation. The offenses took place in 2023. Coley's past was highlighted in court, detailing her struggles with addiction and her toxic relationship with Khan. Both Coley and Khan expressed remorse for their actions, but the judge emphasized the severe nature of their crimes.
